Broadcasts a discovery request to your local network and listens for responses from RTA devices. Even devices which aren't configured properly can be found with this method, because it requests the devices to respond to a multicast address, which allows the devices to ignore their default gateway, netmask, etc., and "just send" the response.

Parameters:

ipaLocal -

Returns:

The list of discovered devices.

Throws:

java.net.UnknownHostException

java.io.IOException
