[Avrora] Question about serial devices

[Roy]

Howdy,

This is just a copy an paste response, since I'm not great with
avrora.  This is the command line that some of the SOS folk use for
testing:

----
java -server avrora/Main -banner=false -colors=true -platform=mica2 \
    -simulation=sensor-network -monitors=serial,real-time \
    -show-packets=true\
    -show-tree-packets=true \
    -ports=1:0:8314 \
    -nodecount=2 -update-node-id=true -sections=.data,.text,.sos_bls \
    -topology=topo.def \
   -sensor-data="light":0:light.dat \
   $1
----

Of note is the "-ports=1:0:8314" line which attaches UART zero of node
1 to port 8314.  Sossrv then uses this port to communicate with the
simulated network.  For more information take a look at:

----
java avrora/Main -help serial
----

Hope that helps!
