UDP Broadcast receive

Matevz Bosnak

I need the CC3000 to be able to receive both subnet-specific broadcast messages (e.g. 192.168.1.255) and general broadcast messages (255.255.255.255).

How do I have to configure the CC3000 sockets to be able to do that?

Hi Matevz,

CC3000 receives UDP broadcasts(to 192.168.1.255) sent to a particular port. General use-case is where you would need to make CC3000 listen on a particular port (UDP server). A client which broadcasts a message on that port to 192.168.1.255 will send message to all the devices listening to that port in that network(including CC3000).

Regarding, 255.255.255.255, are you referring to this specific broadcast address or are you referring to the multicast address group?

Thanks & Regards,
Raghavendra
