C# UDP Broadcast and receive example
<p>Problem:
I am trying to bind a udp socket on a specific address. I will broadcast out a message. That same socket will need to be able to receive messages.</p>

<p>Current code:</p>

<pre><code>static void Main()
{
    UdpClient Configuration = new UdpClient(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Parse(data.IPAddress), configuration.Port));  //set up the bind to the local IP address of my choosing
    ConfigurationServer.EnableBroadcast = true;
    Configuration.Connect(new IPEndpoint(IPAddress.Parse(data.BroadcastIP), configuration.Port);
    Listen();

 }

private void Listen()
{
    Task.Run(async () =&gt;
            {
                while (true)
                {
                    var remoteIp = new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, configuration.Port);
                    var data = await ConfigurationServer.ReceiveAsync();

                    // i would send based on what data i received here
                    int j = 32;
                }
            }
});
}   
</code></pre>

<p>I am not receiving data on listen thread. I know that the code on the other side is functional, and sending a directed UDP message to the IP/Port combo.</p>
