Hi all,

I have a VxWorks IOC (with MVME-CPU using both eth interfaces) communicating with a siemens S7PLC via Asyn/ModbusTCP.
EPICS release 3.14.12.4 Asyn v4.22

After a while (1 or 2 days), the communication is not working anymore ... but I have no error messages (no timeout nor

disconnection ...).

From IOC side I a have "Read Multiple Register" function reading the whole modbus table (109 registers) every second
and a "Write Multiple Register" function writing the value of a counter incremented every seconds from record level.

When I activate AsynTrace on IP Port or Read or Write ports there is no messages ...
asynReport on Read port indicates only 1 Read OK
asynReport on Write port indicates 0 Write OK

I can read the PLC register via "modpoll" tool from a Linux PC
I can start a Linux IOC connected to the same PLC
The netstat command on IOC shell tells that the TCP port is established but the Recv-Q is not equal to 0 (12 for example)

What can explain this behavior ?

thanks in advance !
