Indeed it is and a quick test in Python confirms it. import socket f=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET6, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, 0) f.bind(('::', 1234)) f.setsockopt(socket.IPPROTO_IPV6, socket.IPV6_JOIN_GROUP, b'\xff\x03\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\xfd\0\0\0\0') f.sendto(b'\n', ("ff03::fd", 1234)) print(f.recvfrom(1)) prints: (b'\n', ('fe80::210:60ff:fe31:9bb1%usb0', 1234, 0, 44)) -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center
