    5555To understand how the FEP Simulator works, it helps to understand how the actual FEP works. The actual FEP "polls" field stations, over serial communication lines, for traffic data via RPC. For clarity, "polling" is the act of the FEP requesting traffic data from a field station. When "polled", the field station sends traffic data back to the FEP via RPC. Upon receipt of the traffic data from the field station, the FEP then reformats the data into an fep_reply struct and sends it to the ATMS via RPC.

    57 In contrast, the FEP Simulator acts as a socket server which reads traffic condition data from the Traffic Model over a socket. Upon receipt of this data, the FEP Simulator also reformats the data into fep_reply structs and sends them to the ATMS via RPC.
