how to perform ssdp communicationbetween upnp devices

Question

i am trying to implement the upnp level communication between the devices .. but facing problem in getting the response message .and more over on sending the ssdp:discovery multicast not able to recieve the messages from the devices ... please guide me through i am completely newto this topic

pre-requisite done by me :

1.able to send the M-Search ..and notify message on the network .. and have confirmed via wireshark

2.gone through the upnp architecture related pdf

response got in wireshark :

when ever i am sending the message i am getting the icmp error message that destination is not reachable ..

< client side code > is the first one and second one is the for time being i am just sending up the data on local host

Answer 1

The individual lines in you M-SEARCH need to have "\r\n" at the end of each line, not just a "\n". Your system may just be sending "\n" across the wire. Check the bytes you're sending for a 13 followed by a 10. That's "\r\n".
