I need to discover all ip cameras in local area network that supports onvif protocol. I tried with WSDiscoveryClient, but it doesnt discover onvif services, although it discovers other services. Its like onvif doesnt responde to probe from WSDiscoveryClient. Onvif device manager can do the discovery, so I know it is possible to do it. Does anyone know how to do it?

The normal approach would be to listen to a known IP, look what is relayed back., maybe snoop out the protocol. – Joop Eggen Mar 19 '15 at 15:54

1I haven't coded much in Java, but this looks like a good example on how to send a udp broadcast: http://michieldemey.be/blog/network-discovery-using-udp-broadcast/ – ChrisWard1000 Mar 21 '15 at 23:48
