Request Message

Request messages are messages that expect a response to be returned from the destination. A request message contains payload data and a source and destination address. The source address will be auto populated by Generic Message with the peer name of the originating connection. The destination address will need to be populated by the script. The source and destination address will be used by the route table to find the best matching route to use for delivering the message.
Setting the destination address of a message will identify the message as a request message. The destination address is often generated by data contained in the message.
