If you are a software / hardware developer, you have to clearly understand that protocols such MMDVM, HomeBrew Repeater, IP Site Connect are oriented to connect repeaters or hotspots. BrandMeister differentiates connection types to: Repeater (Hotspot), Network, Terminal and Application. Repeaters and Hotspots processed with specific presentation layer which keeps in mind many things such as slots, hand-off timers, dynamic and static subscriptions, etc. So when you are trying to do something for the network, please keep in mind that we have some specials for you:

Open Bridge is to bridging networks, requires configuration on both endpoints, but has no limits with count of simultaneous streams
Open DMR Terminal Protocol is for IP-connected terminals, allows single stream per connection, but has API to manage groups, send and receive SMS and GPS, automatic terminal registration and supports PUSH-based application wake-up
Simple External Application is for IVRs, multimode bridges such as EchoLink, allows single stream per connection
HTTP API and MQTT API are for cases if you need send SMS or simple voice messages
Maybe it will be enough to use some functions of our APRS Gateway

Also please read DMR Data Transport.
