This repository contains a simple multicast client/server implementation.
The client and the server must use the same multicast address and port.
The official list from IANA may be found here
The server that waits for the multicast data. Could be run on multiple machines.
Note that the receiver must be on a different machine see: [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1719156/is-there-a-way-to-test-multicast-ip-on-same-box]
The client that sends the multicast trafic.
It just sends the data, no check is perfomed to know whether or not anyone is listening or receiving.
