I'm a complete newb at multicast stuff - never used it before. Since this traffic will be completely contained over the OpenVPN link, should I be using (per this link: http://www.tcpipguide.com/free/t_IPMulticastAddressing.htm) addresses from the administratively (or locally) scoped range? Also, what might a route statement look like for multicast - different than normal unicast routing, or pretty much the same?
