The LookAround client uses IP multicast to find LookAround servers within the
same multicast domain.
MAC addresses change slower than IP addresses, so if you know that
`11:11:11:11:11:11` is your laptop, and your laptop is running LookAround,
LookAround will find the IP for you.
## Installation
Use the Cargo package manager from [Rust](https://rustup.rs/) to install LookAround.
