In Simulink, can the Local IP port of the Raspberry Pi UDP send block be set to send from a specific IP port?

I am using the raspberry pi to communicate via UDP to/from a external device. I send a UDP packet to request the external device to start sending data and the external device starts sending data back to the requesting IP address and IP port. Therefore to be able to receive the data correctly, I need to be able to set a specific local IP port that the UDP send block sends from. This is so that I can receive the data with a UDP receive block set to that specific local port. Any help would be appreciated?

In Simulink, the UDP Send block for Raspberry Pi allows you to specify the local IP address and port from which the data will be sent. However, the ability to set a specific local IP port may depend on the implementation and the version of the Simulink support package you are using.

Typically, you can set the local port in the UDP Send block by modifying the block parameters. Look for an option to specify the local port number. If the option is available,

you can enter the desired port number to send from that specific port.

If you do not see an option to set the local port, it may be that the block is designed to use a default port assigned by the system, in which case you may need to refer to the documentation for the latest capabilities or consider using other methods to achieve your requirements.

Always make sure to check the latest documentation for the Raspberry Pi support package in Simulink for the most accurate information.
