[multicast mode] Allow binding to a specific IP instead of wildcard #218
Comments
What do you want to achieve with this? You want a node receiving everything while the other nodes receive the traffic via multicast? |
@PolynomialDivision The reason is that I have an encrypted L2 VXLAN over Wireguard for nodes to communicate securely over, it's used for RADIUS mostly and I don't want to have umdns multicast spam everyone else on my network. So putting it on the encrypted network makes everything a lot cleaner and more secure. However, it wouldn't make much sense to do this if DAWN just listens on all addresses and some of these devices have no firewall due to being dumb APs. |
Also I should add that the first thing I tried was the UDP broadcast, but then I realized the messages are corrupted due to the large amount of stations (#217); which caused me to want to turn back to the most common and tested mode but not being able to set an IP to bind to was a deal breaker for me. |
I thought that setting
server_ip
would fix it, but it doesn't seem to check that value in multicast mode.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
