I'm trying to listen to SSDP multicast messages such as NOTIFY and SEARCH.
This is my code but I'm not seeing these messages even though wireshark sees them. So, how do I join the SSDP multicast group and receive messages?
Rebol []
attempt [close ssdp]
local-ip: read join dns:// read dns://
ssdp: open/binary udp://:8000
probe group: compose/deep [multicast-groups: [[235.255.255.250 (local-ip)]]]
set-modes ssdp group
forever [
port: wait [ssdp]
probe data: copy port
]
The following codes sends a SSDP SEARCH command first to pickup all the devices on the network, and then listens for a SEARCH command from other devices.
REBOL [
Notes: {to listen for SSDP messages. Works on Rebol2}

local-ip: read join dns:// read dns://
probe local-ip
attempt [close odata]
attempt [close idata]
odata: open/binary udp://239.255.255.250:1900 ; SSDP multicast port address
set-modes odata [multicast-ttl: 10]
; next line seems unnecessary
; set-modes odata compose/deep [multicast-interface: (local-ip)]
idata: open/binary udp://:1900
set-modes idata compose/deep [multicast-groups: [[239.255.255.250 (local-ip)]]]
