In the /server/all/deploy directory there is a cluster-service.xml file with a 
section that configures the JGroups protocol stack.  It has a UDP element with 
attributes mcast_addr and mcast_port (multicast address and port). If different 
machines on the network have the same mcast_addr and mcast_port, your JGroups 
channel will see messages from the other machines. JGroups will see that the 
packets are intended for a cluster with a different name and will discard them, 
but it will complain about it. It's best to use a different mcast_addr and 
mcast_port for machines that are not meant to be part of the same cluster.

When I was working in a team environment we generally gave each developer their 
own port number to use.

This can be a bit of a pain if you have to edit the cluster-service.xml file to 
give each developer their own port.  I've used system property substitution to 
manage this in 4.0.1SP1 and later; haven't tried it in 4.0.1.  Looks like this:

<UDP mcast_addr="${jboss.partition.udpGroup:228.1.2.3} 
mcast_port="${jboss.partition.udpPort:45566} ...

Then in your command line you use -D to set the jboss.partition.udpGroup and 
udpPort.  Beginning in 4.0.3 you can use a -u command line switch to set the 
udpGroup.

We then set an environment variable for the port on each machine and passed the 
values of the environment variables through the command line.

Beginning with 4.0.1SP1 there is also a tc5-cluster-service.xml file that 
creates a JGroups channel used for http session replication; a similar 
procedure needs to be used for it as well.
