# NDI RECV Event Monitoring and Commands

Beyond the standard functions—`NDIlib_recv_advertiser_create` and `NDIlib_recv_listener_create`—available in the standard SDK, the Advanced SDK offers extended versions of this function calls:

• NDIlib\_recv\_advertiser\_create\_ex

• NDIlib\_recv\_listener\_create\_ex

These extended functions accept configuration settings as JSON strings, providing greater flexibility for managing network configurations of both the receiver and listener.
