When a packet is received, it sends that packet to all specified interfaces but the one it came from as though it originated from the original sender. + + The primary purpose of this is to allow games on machines on separated local networks (Ethernet, WLAN) that use udp broadcasts to find each other to do so. + + It also works on ppp links, so you can log in from windows boxes (e.g. using pptp) and play LAN-based games together. Currently, you have to care about upcoming or downgoing interfaces yourself. + + http://www.joachim-breitner.de/udp-broadcast-relay/ |
