title: Receive udp broadcast packets ios
body: <p>I'm almost completely done with and iOS client for my REST service. The only thing I'm missing is the ability for the client to listen on the network for a UDP broadcast that receives the host display name and base URL for uploads. There could be multiple servers on the network broadcasting and waiting for uploads.</p>
  
  <p>Asynchronous is preferred.  The servers will be displayed to the user as the device discovers them and I want the user to be able to select a server at any point in time.</p>
  
  <p>The broadcaster is sending to 255.255.255.255 and does not expect any data back.</p>
  
  <p>I am a beginner in objective c so something simple and easy to use is best.</p>
