Overview

One of my 2nd yr projects. It's pretty much what it says, an RFC4330 compliant SNTP server & client with both unicast and multicast addressing modes. I've put the relevant RFC in docs/ along with design docs and screenshots of the working binaries (console logs & wireshark).

Requirements

For information on the game's system requirements, see docs/requirements.txt

Usage

1. Either compile src/ or just use the pre-built binaries in bin/
2. run ./server-*, * = unicast/multicast
   • Usage for server-unicast ./server-unicast
   • Usage for server-multicast ./server-multicast broadcast_interface <port> (<> = optional)
3. run ./client-*, * = unicast/multicast
   • Usage for client-unicast ./client-unicast <host address> <port> (<> = optional)
   • Usage for client-mcasts `./client-mcasts

Compiling

Compiling is really simple, so I didn't bother with a Makefile or anything.

1. gcc src/* -o bin/* (* = file, needs to be specified)
2. Done!
