Joining a multicast group in Linux using a command line

Question

Can anyone tell me how to join/define a multicast group in Linux with the help of a command line?

Answer 1

Try ssmping. When you do this, it specifies a unicast address that will join the fixed multicast address 232.43.211.234. It sends periodic membership reports.
