Overview

mcbridge is a multicast bridge, useful to bridge UDP multicast traffic between two machines over a TCP connection. This is sometimes needed because multicast routing is often not available over a WAN.

Usage

  • On the machine that has access to multicast, that is the server machine:
$ mcbridge server
  • On the machine that does not have access to multicast, that is the client machine:
$ mcbridge client -s <server address> -g multicast_ip:port ...

Build

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/pedro-esteves-pinto/mcbridge.git
$ cd mcbridge
$ mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. 
$ make
