在不扫描整个网络的情况下发现本地网络中的服务器

Question

I am writing a program in Java that involves one computer creating a server and another one that finds the server's IP and creates a connection to it.

The method i am looking for is similar to that of the SHAREit app. I tried to search through out the subnet in my network, 192.168. . , for a computer with a particular open port but it took a long time, so I'm looking for a better way.

Answer 1

The solution is to broadcast a message from the server, once the client receives it it will contact the server.
