Re: Strange multicast behaviour...A bug?

You need to route the multicast traffic and if you have a default route, then it does the job instead.

1. remove default route
2. ip route add 224.0.0.0/4 <interface>
2.1. alternatively you could route only the desired mcast address
3. bind your receiver to the <interface>

I know... behavior has changed (long ago).

Today I observed that multicasting does not work without a default route. Naturally I expected it to not get past the local subnet. However, I was surprised that I was not able to receive the traffic on the SAME host that was sending it. Is that a bug? Even if no one else is able to receive the join. Why can't the joining host still join????
