Hi,

Looking at RFC4541 and specifically the discussion 2.1.2 (2) on data forwarding rules. It says


"Packets with a destination IP (DIP) address in the 224.0.0.X range
      which are not IGMP must be forwarded on all ports."

As I see, there may not be explicit joins in this range and looking at IANA registry most protocols look chatty.

Are there any groups with silent listeners that use this range ?
