CAT commands through UDP/TCP?

Hello.

Can SDR Console exchange CAT information through UDP or TCP?
I am running SDR console for QO-100.
To logging contacts I'm running a CAT software that reads the frequencies from Console and send them to logging software. All connections between the softwares are through virtual serial ports which are quite unstable.

Also, can Console send the TX frequency through CAT? I couldn't find where to enable it.
Monitoring the communication between Console and CAT software, I see only RX frequency sent from Console (in IF command response).

No, it can't.
Lot of people (including me) use Com0Com virtual serial ports, it is very stable.
