Mutlicast Failing without Adding route

[John Wood]

That exactly what I am seeing, with my route added I found that it seems to be working as expected using an external machine running wireshark.  Originally, all I could see was my loopback packet which appeared to have the interface IP so I was not sure if routing was changing the mcast IP to the interface IP but this does not appear to be the case.

Thanks a lot,
John

Greetings all,

I am using rtems 4.9.2 on a custom PCB with 2 Ethernet interfaces.  If I don't add a route my multicast sends fail.  Is this the correct behavior?
I am not particularly familiar with multicast.  I have loopback enabled and when I receive the message it has the IP address of my interface as
Opposed to the broadcast address which seems incorrect to me but is it possibly correct.

I tried setting the interface using the IP_MULTICAST_IF but this does not appear to help.

Thanks for any insight,
John
