NETIO Discover uses UDP broadcast transmission.
- NETIO GitHub: Python Netio Discover Class
Automatically detect all interfaces and sends UDP discover to search new NETIO devices on connected interfaces. - NETIO UDP Discover - Java based Multiplatform - JAR
Send Discover message:
Destination: Broadcast (eg. 255.255.255.0)
Protocol: UDP
Destination Port: 62387
Data(HEX): 01ec00
Receive Discover response:
NETIO devices response with UDP broadcast message with destination port 62386. So listen on port 62386 and parse messages according to table below. Data are sent as datastream with flags inside. If you pass the end of known field types, ignore rest of data in datastream.
Listen protocol: UDP
Listen on port: 62386
