This repository includes the reference controller implementation and the associated SDK.

This fork adds the WTP/controller discovery feature via UDP broadcasts: The agent sends a broadcast packet to the local network and the controller replies to notify the agent about its presence. It also returns the EmPOWER hello packets sent by the agent in order to implement a bidirectional heartbeat and therefore extend the error management.
