I have a problem with reading the data from my smart home manager. I am running a node-red v2.2.3 inside a docker container on my raspberry pi4. I have forwarded the udp port 9522 inside the container.  
I have configured a udp-in mulitcast and receive data, but in fact it seems wrong in terms of the length.  
This is the data I receive:

```auto
{"payload":[83,77,65,0,0,4,2,160,0,0,0,1,0,38,0,16,96,101,9,160,255,255,255,255,255,255,0,0,116,1,136,63,156,179,0,0,0,0,0,0,146,140,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],"fromip":"172.17.0.1:41165","ip":"172.17.0.1","port":41165,"_msgid":"45768c8444d7e6e7"}

```

Can anybody confirm that the data is wrong? Any idea what might be wrong?

Hi @lori and welcome the forums

We are going to need a lot more context to be able to help.

- What goodies in this UDP datagram are you expecting?
- What size are you expecting?

As you can imagine, the forums cover a whole host of systems, so some context about the system and what you're expecting from it will help.

Hi @marcus-j-davies, thanks for the quick reply.  
Meanwhile I found the problem. Within docker container, the udp multicast is not easy to setup. I switched to unicast inside the sunny manager settings in the sunny portal and now I revieve all data and the flows are working.
