Verify that the broadcast addresses are identical on the server's host and -on the client's host. This can be checked on UNIX with "netstat -i" or +on the client's host. This can be checked on UNIX with "netstat -i" or "ifconfig -a"; on vxWorks with ifShow; and on windows with ipconfig. It is -normal for the broadcast addresses to not be idenical if the client and -server are not directl,y attached to the same IP subnet, and in this -situtaion the EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST must be set. Otherwise, if the client and -server should be on the same IP subnet, then the problem may be that the +normal for the broadcast addresses to not be identical if the client and +server are not directly attached to the same IP subnet, and in this situation +the EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST must be set. Otherwise, if the client and server are +intended to be on the same IP subnet, then the problem may be that the netmask is incorrectly set in the network interface configuration. On most -operating systems when the host's IP address is configured the host's IP -subnet mask is also configured .
+operating systems, when the host's IP address is configured, the host's IP +subnet mask is also configured. -Verify that the client and server are using the same UDP port. Check the server's port by running "netstat -a | grep nnn" where nnn is the port number
