This is two applications; a client and a server application. It uses a combination of UDP broadcast packets and TCP client/server protocol to connect. The server sends a broadcast packet every second and the client catches it and connects to the server via the IP that is contained in the broadcast packet reteived from the server.

There are no inputs, the program connects to any other computer on a network, excluding any that are behind other routers of course.
The client program displays the connection information as far as local and remote IPs and ports. The server holds a list of connected clients and an indicator as to whether or not the passed the confirmation string.
