We are developing a application to recieve UDP broadcast from a third party application.
Wireshark shows packets of 512 bytes. Each packet have header information. Below is 8 bytes as wireshark shows
01 00 5E 01 02 05 00 11
I have created a small consol based application C# to listen on that specific port.
Below is what i am geeting as first 8 bytes.
04 20 00 01 00 00 04 59
Can someone explain it?
Wireshark typically shows the entire packet which is described here. The first 4 bytes you show might be the port numbers (256 and 24065 … not sure if those make sense or not in your case). If your console application is doing something equivalent to a recvfrom, it will include the payload portion but not the header.
