Hi guys,

I have a question about network.

I find there are some UDP packets being sent over my computer.
Source IP is 0.0.0.0 Destination IP is 255.255.255.255.
Source port 68 Destination port is 67

What are these packets for?

Any help or idea or hint will be appreciated !!

your DHCP client is probably just trying to renew the lease from the
DHCP server. this is normal behaviour. in other workds you are tryingo
to get another IP or renew the lease fom your ISP

for more port info see
