nmc can't send on non-default interface #10

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Run mnc to send UDP multicast packets
2. Watch traffic on non-default interface

What is the expected output?

I expect to see multicast packets being sent.

What do you see instead?

Nothing.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.

The -i option is refused in send mode, but there needs to be a way to tell mnc 
what interface you want to send on.  As it is, will only send on
the "default" interface.

Doh!

Never mind.  Specifying the source address associated with the desired interface
does the trick.

Specifying the IP address does not work if the requested interface is used 
within a bridge config (facing the network as br0) or is a virtual interface 
(Ubuntu Squeeze/Sid ).
