Thanks, that explains. There's been a flurry of issues related to AIX + multicasting. I think the main issue is that nobody has pointed to something authoritative that says whether AIX allows a dual socket join an IPv4 multicast group or not. It sounds like it doesn't allow it, in which case I assume the issue has been there since JDK 1.4 or whenever the AIX port added support for IPv6. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/15777#issuecomment-1723025250
