I have a client/server application that communicates with .Net remoting. I need my clients to be able to find the server(s) on the network without requiring client-side configuration. As far as I know, there is no support for discovery in remoting. I am prepared to implement a UDP solution where the clients will be able to find the ser...
I've heard some people say the IPv4 broadcast address is 0.0.0.0 and others say it is 255.255.255.255... would someone explain the real-world difference? ...
Hi! I would like to know if anyone here knows an API where it's possible for me to create a live webcam broadcast from inside my website? I was checking the uStream API and it seems that you can't create anything, just retrieve data... Does anyone knows anything like this? Thanks in advanced! ...
If you had to implement a network broadcast, would you use UDP broadcast or IP multicast in a new application? Why? What are the benefits and drawbacks you encountered with either method? (Especially concerning problems with VPNs, different subnets, various routers etc.) ...
I am interested in developing an application that will allow me to build a list of videos from xml (containing video title, duration, etc) and play that list as my webcam stream. Meaning, if I were to visit ustream.tv, or activate my webcam on live messenger my video playlist would register as my active webcam. Does anybody have experie...
How can I broadcast an mp3 file using rtsp? ...
I'm working on a project that discovers/configures remote devices using UDP broadcasts. These devices may not have IP addresses configured yet, at least no to match the network they are connected to. Currently we use a single sendto with a target address of 255.255.255.255. This works fine in most cases but on Vista machines with multipl...
On a Linux system with a wired and a wireless interface (e.g. 192.168.1.x and 192.168.2.x subnets) I want to send a UDP broadcast that goes out via ALL available interfaces (i.e. both through the wired and the wireless interface). Currently I sendto() to INADDR_BROADCAST, however it seems that the broadcast only is sent through one of t...
Are the following IP adresses - 168.94.254.255 & 168.94.255.254 - used for broadcast, if they belong to B Class? (The adresses were randomly chosen). I suppose 168.94.255.255 would rather be a broadcast adress, but I'm not sure. Thanks in advance! ...
In order to notify all computers within the same lan about my existence, I want to broadcast my hostname and IP address. How do I go about doing so without sending them as a string? ...
Hi I want to calculate the broadcast address for e.g -IP 192.168.3.1 -Subnet 255.255.255.0 =192.168.3.255 in C. I know the way (doing fancy bitwise OR's between the inversed IP and Subnet), but my problem is I come from the green fields of MacOSX Cocoa programing. I looked into the source of ipcal, but wasn't able to integrate it into...
I have a Linux application that opens a UDP socket and binds it to a port. I haven't had any problem sending unicast packets through the socket. I had occasion to send a broadcast packet, so I enabled SO_BROADCAST, which allowed the broadcast packets to pass, but then I noticed that the unicast packets were being broadcast as well. Is...
Solution for Windows XP or higher. Preferably in C# or else in C++. We do not want to broadcast using a subnet directed broadcast (e.g. 192.168.101.255) since the device we are trying to contact is not responding to this. Instead, we want to be able to send UDP datagram with a destination of 255.255.255.255 from a specific NIC/IPAddress...
I have a somewhat weird requirement to be able to listen to a number of network interfaces from Java on a Linux machine and determine if one of them receives UDP packets of a certain type. The output data which I need is the IP address of the interface in question. Is there any way to do this in Java? Listening on the wildcard address ...
Guys i have tried a lot but somehow there seems to be some problem with the code to receive a datagram that is broadcast by a remote host. So could someone please provide me with the code to receive a broadcast message in c#using a udp connection?. Thanks a ton ...
I have a Windows XP machine with more than one network adapter. When I receive a UDP broadcast package from another machine that does not yet have a valid IP address, howcan I determine which network adapter received this package? I need to implement a kind on custom DHCP server... ...
Im trying to move a system from using morbid to rabbitmq, but I cannot seem to get the same broadcast behaviour morbid supplied by default. By broadcast I mean that when a message is added to the queue, every consumer recieves it. With rabbit, when a message is added they are distributed round robin style to every listener. Can anyone t...
I want to send notification message every second from net tcp WCF service to all clients, Broadcast you can say? After the helpful answers I wrote the following method that will send notifications (heartbeat) to all connected users foreach (IHeartBeatCallback callback in subscribers) { ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem(delegate(object st...

I'm using .NET 2.0 and have created a fairly simple udp broadcast app and udp listener. Listener code: Socket listener = new Socket( AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Dgram, ProtocolType.Udp ); IPEndPoint localEndPoint = new IPEndPoint( IPAddress.Any, 11000 ); listener.Bind( localEndPoint ); EndPoint ep = (EndPoint)iep; Console....
