This guide provides steps to establish a UDP connection among multiple computers, compatible with various operating systems.
Connect all computers to the same network switch using UTP cables.
Identify the IP address that you wish to change. Execute the following commands in the Command Line Interface (CLI):
ipconfig
ifconfig
Note the IPv4 Address, Subnet Mask, and (if applicable) Default Gateway.
The following steps guide you through the process of changing the IP address to match the identified one.
ifconfig
. If changes are not reflected, execute: nmcli networking off
followed by nmcli networking on
ping [IP destination]
in the CLI (For example, ping 129.192.23.92
). Ensure that ping returns connection without packet loss.Remember to adjust IP addresses and Ports in the code!

Checking the system update rates can be accomplished using Wireshark. Run the UDP communication with Wireshark open on both computers under analysis. Use the following filter: ip.src= [ipaddress]
(for example, ip.src=129.192.23.93
). Save the result in CSV format (File -> Export Packet Dissection -> CSV). Note: For Ubuntu systems, add .csv
to the filename.
