# UDP Multicast Example
|
|
|
|
This example shows how to use the IPV4 & IPV6 UDP multicast features via the BSD-style sockets interface.
|
|
|
|
## Behaviour
|
|
|
|
The behaviour of the example is:
|
|
|
|
* Listens to specified multicast addresses (one IPV4 and/or one IPV6).
|
|
* Print any UDP packets received as ASCII text.
|
|
* If no packets are received it will periodically (after 2.5 seconds) send its own plaintext packet(s) to the multicast address(es).
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Open the project configuration menu (`idf.py menuconfig`).
|
|
|
|
Configure Wi-Fi or Ethernet under "Example Connection Configuration" menu. See "Establishing Wi-Fi or Ethernet Connection" section in [examples/protocols/README.md](../../README.md) for more details.
|
|
|
|
The "Example Configuration" menu allows you to configure the details of the example:
|
|
|
|
* IP Mode: IPV4 & IPV6 dual, IPV4 only, or IPv6 only.
|
|
* Multicast addresses for IPV4 and/or IPV6.
|
|
* Enable multicast socket loopback (ie should the socket receive its own multicast transmissions.)
|
|
* Change the interface to add the multicast group on (default interface, or WiFi STA interface.) Both methods are valid.
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Details
|
|
|
|
In IPV4 & IPV6 dual mode, an IPV6 socket is created and the "dual mode" options described in [RFC4038](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4038) are used to bind it to the default address for both IPV4 & IPV6 and join both the configured IPV4 & IPV6 multicast groups. Otherwise, a single socket of the appropriate type is created.
|
|
|
|
The socket is always bound to the default address, so it will also receive unicast packets. If you only want to receive multicast packets for a particular address, `bind()` to that multicast address instead.
|
|
|
|
## Host Tools
|
|
|
|
There are many host-side tools which can be used to interact with the UDP multicast example. One command line tool is [socat](http://www.dest-unreach.org/socat/) which can send and receive many kinds of packets.
|
|
|
|
### Send IPV4 multicast via socat
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
echo "Hi there, IPv4!" | socat STDIO UDP4-DATAGRAM:232.10.11.12:3333,ip-multicast-if=(host_ip_addr)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace `232.10.11.12:3333` with the IPV4 multicast address and port, and `(host_ip_addr)` with the host's IP address (used to find the interface to send the multicast packet on.)
|
|
|
|
### Receive IPV4 multicast via socat
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
socat STDIO UDP4-RECVFROM:3333,ip-add-membership=232.10.11.12:(host_ip_addr)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace `:3333` and `232.10.11.12` with the port and IPV4 multicast address, respectively. Replace `(host_ip_addr)` with the host IP address, used to find the interface to listen on.
|
|
|
|
(The `,ip-add-membership=...` clause may not be necessary, depending on your network configuration.)
|
|
|
|
### Send IPV6 multicast via socat
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
echo "Hi there, IPV6!" | socat STDIO UDP6-DATAGRAM:[ff02::fc]:3333
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace `[ff02::fc]:3333` with the IPV6 multicast address and port, respectively.
|
|
|
|
### Receive IPV6 multicast via socat
|
|
|
|
At time of writing this is not possible without patching socat. Use a different tool or programming language to receive IPV6 multicast packets.
