Python multicast receiver - duplicate packets?
There is a script that opens a socket and reads a multicast from it (taken from here )
import socket
import struct
MCAST_GRP = '224.1.1.1'
MCAST_PORT = 1234
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, socket.IPPROTO_UDP)
sock.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
sock.bind(('', MCAST_PORT))
mreq = struct.pack("4sl", socket.inet_aton(MCAST_GRP), socket.INADDR_ANY)
sock.setsockopt(socket.IPPROTO_IP, socket.IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, mreq)
while True:
print sock.recv(10240)
-sock.bind(('', MCAST_PORT))
+sock.bind((MCAST_GRP, MCAST_PORT))
