Port-Forwarding with LAN
« on: May 09, 2018, 04:31:26 pm »
I am making a program that only requires LAN connection.
Do I need to Port-Forward a port for UDP connection?
If not, how do I tell which port the client needs to connect to?
Or can I just pick a port at random?

You don't need to port-forward for a LAN connection. You may choose which ever non-reserved port you like.
