Server Restart Tool

As discussed in Section 2.4.2, the route-engine is restarted when the server receives a UDP datagram on the administration port. This small applet produces that datagram. It consists of nothing more than an AWT button, which triggers the sending of the datagram to the port specified as a parameter to the applet.

This program functions well on all platforms, as expected from such a simple piece of code.
