This looks good. Some small comments on the test:

1) The test should use the (test library) NetworkConfiguration 
   multicastInterfaces method, instead of retrieving all the system
   interfaces. The former will filter out potentially problematic system
   interfaces that could affect the stability of the test.

2) Enumeration :-( Suggest [ subject to the above comment ]
   a) NetworkInterface.networkInterfaces().collect(toList()) , or
   b) Collections.list(NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces())

3) While the test does run in othervm mode, it should probably be a good
   citizen and close the sockets that it opens.
