I've updated Project 2, which now states that the router program takes
three (3) arguments instead of 2. The first two arguments are the IP
address and port number that the server socket will bind to. This will
force the server to only listen on one of your available interfaces
and will also make logging information easier (since you don't have to
figure out the IP address any longer). You'll need to get your own
IP address from your system (ifconfig, if you're using Linux).
You may continue to use only 2 arguments if you have already
figured out how to get the IP address on your own.
I've also updated the link-state packet to include the source IP and port numbers. Without this, the flooding protocol will have difficulty figuring out which neighbor belongs to which.
