TAK link traffic

Application payload counters for this bridge process

Connection target: —
TLS certificate name: —
TLS session: —
Forwarded CoT: 0
Heartbeats: 0
TX messages / bytes: 0 / 0 B
Last transmit: —
RX CoT / chunks / bytes: 0 / 0 / 0 B
Last receive: —

Connected means TLS negotiation completed. Increasing TX counters confirms local socket writes, but neither result proves that TAK routed the CoT to clients. Use TEST Mode for an independent marker and confirm it on a TAK client.

Configuration

Bridge setup

Changes are validated and stored under princetak-data/config.

TAK server

Mutual-TLS streaming connection

Host TLS server nameUse when the connection address differs from the certificate DNS name. Streaming port Bridge callsign TAK bind IP Reconnect delay (seconds) Heartbeat interval (seconds)

Simulators

Add one configuration for each PRINCE video/KLV source.

Security

Client certificates

Private material is stored only under princetak-data/certs.

Certificate statusLoading…

PEM files

Install a certificate and matching private key.

PKCS#12 bundle

Import a P12 or PFX client package.

TAK automatic enrollment

Generates a local private key and sends only the CSR. Enrollment credentials are never saved.

Diagnostics

TEST Mode

Send a synthetic CoT marker without using PRINCE multicast, KLV, or the bridge worker.

Independent CoT marker

Uses a separate one-shot TCP/TLS connection so simulator input cannot affect the result.

Maintenance

Restart schedule

The WebUI stays online; only the bridge worker is restarted.

Diagnostics

Bridge logs

Persistent, rotated logs from the managed bridge worker.

No log output.

Management

System settings

Container liveness remains independent from bridge readiness.

WebUI listener

Changing the port restarts the management process.

Docker health

Safe liveness information for Docker and reverse proxies.
