Configuration entry for network interface to use when sending ps4 wake packet #4

Closed aguiswite closed 4 years ago

aguiswite commented 4 years ago

My OpenHAB instance has 2 network interfaces. It appears the the server and ps4 must both be on the same subnet for the wake packet to send successfully. I configured OpenHAB to use interface A as my primary address in the system settings because that subnet is where the majority of IoT devices exist. However, my PS4 exists on a different subnet which is accessible via network interface B. The playstation binding is sending the wake packet on interface A when it should be sending on interface B instead. I think the solution should be as easy as passing the bound socket address (from Thing config entry) into the DatagramSocket constructor.

It seems the DatagramSocket constructor wants the local IP of the network interface, so maybe the best/easiest way is to make a new config for outbound IP. Is that a good enough solution?

aguiswite commented 4 years ago

Yes, that is exactly what I need. An outbound IP configuration will be perfect. Thanks @FluBBaOfWard!

Here is a test version with config for outboundIP. If that works for you I will make a real release of it. org.openhab.binding.playstation-2.5.6-SNAPSHOT.jar.zip

The updated binding worked for me on the first try. Thank you for adding this feature.
