IPv6 offers support for sending packets to multiple recipients. This is done via multicast groups. A list of multicast groups is maintained by the IANA.
In Unix a socket that is used for multicast must be joined to a group via a
setsockopt
call:It would be nice for Eio to expose an API for doing IPv6 multicast.
