This is the initial release of broadcastipd for Arch Linux ARM.

The main purpose of this tool is to broadcast the IP address of the machine where the tool is launched. Due technical limitations this is only supported on IPv4 and the broadcast packages are received only by machines that are on the same subnetwork.

The datagram used by the tool is quite simple. It will broadcast on a given port and specified message string and it will continue to send the message in a loop with a given sleep period between each package until the tool gets terminated.

Standalone usage: broadcastipd <dgram_message> <dgram_port> <dgram_sleep_sec>
or as a service: systemctl start|stop broadcastipd via configuration setting broadcastipd.conf
