Server only works with a single network interface #6

Open respectTheCode opened 6 years ago

respectTheCode commented 6 years ago

When running on a machine with multiple network interfaces only the primary interface works. Im my use case sACN is on an isolated network. This can be fixed by specifying the IP of the desired interface when calling _socket.addMembership.

As a work around I am calling 

dmx.on("listening", function() {
    const multicastGroup = "239.255." + (universe >> 8) + "." + (universe & 0xff);
    dmx._socket.addMembership(multicastGroup, dmxInterfaceIP);

Hi, thanks for reporting! Indeed I didn't consider multiple interfaces in the original implementation. Thanks for providing a suggestion, I will try to incorporate it as soon as possible.

@respectTheCode I created a pull request that includes this functionality. Are you still using this library? https://github.com/hhromic/e131-node/pull/22
