Multicaster

This is a software for routing multicast traffic across L2 networks. It'll allow you to be very specific about the exact traffic that is sent over.

Working Notes

  1. It needs to listen on the specified port to receive multicast traffic. This causes problems if there are other softwares that are also listening without using SO_ADDR_REUSE.

For now, Disable those softwares when running this. A list of such softwares,

a. avahi-daemon

How should this be designed??

For now, I am restricting it to only consider 1 config. It won't listen on multiple ports for multicast traffic. This will be changed once I have the basic structure ready.

For now, Only work on IPv4. IPv6 will be added once IPv4 is ready
