I can agree with Cedric.

I use rtems5 with rtems-libbsd. I initialize the network interfaces of my 
target via dhcpcd 
and the interfaces are automatically multicast capable.

This works without creating a route:

 if (setsockopt(conf->udp, IPPROTO_IP, IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP,
                        (char *) &mreq, sizeof(mreq))!=0) {
                        struct sockaddr_in temp;
                        char name[40];
...
