Hi all,
I have one doubt regarding binding sockets to IP addresses:
When I don't bind an UDP socket to a specific local IP address, that socket may receive packets from any interface. But imagine that one IP address of one of my local interfaces changes, will I be able to continue receiveing packets from that interface using the previous socket? What does the kernel do when I create a socket without binding it to a local IP address, does it bind it to all my IP's at the time the socket was created?
Best Regards
Filipe
