Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

I am designing a soft IOC to run on Linux, which will control and monitor an array of 32 identical network (Ethernet) devices.  The network protocol is udp.  I will use asyn and most likely streamDevice.  What is the most sensible approach to implement this?

The IOC needs to communicate with all devices present, each with a unique IP address.  My uncertainty is how to establish communication with and then address each device as needed.  Also how to maintain a list of connections.
Is there an example of similar implementation?
I have written a number of soft IOCs to communicate with a single Ethernet device using asyn.  Dealing with an array of Ethernet devices seems daunting.

Any suggestions are welcome,
