C++ socket with bridge network

[cciarleg]

Hi,

I am configuring a program to send packets over a bridge network. Currently, I do not think the program is actually sending values. It's code I've used before and I've checked the port values between the 2 machines.

I was wondering:

Do I need to configure anything on the bridge to make this work? (i.e. I am opening a UDP port. If the bridge is TCP or something does that mess things up)

Is there anything that needs to be configured by the code to use the bridge in particular? I think I can just open the socket with the port and address set but not sure if I am missing anything.

Anyone done this in Linux before?

Thanks!

What errors are you seeing? Do a netstat -a to see if your ports are in use.
