Getting "Couldn't parse broadcast" errors when address name is shortened

Networking

-

To reproduce:
1. Open attached project "New Unity Project.zip"
2. Build for standalone
3. Open two instances of the build (I was not able to connect using two machines)
4. On one instance press Start Server
5. On another instance press Start Client
6. In Server client type "Testing" and press Update Payload
7. Focus Client instance and observe that address: line appears in the top
8. On the Server instance delete a couple of letter to e.g. "Test"
9. Focus Client instance and notice that the address is not updated
10. Open mac console (command + space > console) and observe the Player.log

Expected result: the address on the Client instance is updated
Actual result: the address is not updated and getting in the console:

Couldn't parse broadcast: {"Name":"Test","Revision":3}:2}

(Filename: ./Runtime/Export/Debug.bindings.h Line: 43)

  1. Resolution Note:

    Mass closure of UNET Bugs.
    As UNet is Deprecated we are moving to low maintenance mode, where critical issues can get fixes.
    Closing this bug as part of cleaning-up the Bug List.

    If you feel this bug is really a road-blocker, you can reopen the bug and we will work this one.
