This chapter describes the Enea LINX Gateway protocol.

The Gateway consists of a client part and a server part. The communication channel from the client to the server is a TCP connection. The client sends a request to the server that interprets the request and returns a reply back to the client. The client must not issue another request until it has got the reply for the previous one, there is one exception to this rule that will be described later.
