/**
* A network channel that supports Internet Protocol (IP) multicasting.
*
* <p> IP multicasting is the transmission of IP datagrams to members of
* a <em>group</em> that is zero or more hosts identified by a single destination
* address.
*
* <p> In the case of a channel to an {@link StandardProtocolFamily#INET IPv4} socket,
* the underlying operating system supports <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2236.txt">
* <i>RFC 2236: Internet Group Management Protocol, Version 2 (IGMPv2)</i></a>.
* It may optionally support source filtering as specified by <a
* href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3376.txt"> <i>RFC 3376: Internet Group
* Management Protocol, Version 3 (IGMPv3)</i></a>.
* For channels to an {@link StandardProtocolFamily#INET6 IPv6} socket, the equivalent
* standards are <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2710.txt"> <i>RFC 2710:
* Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) for IPv6</i></a> and <a
* href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3810.txt"> <i>RFC 3810: Multicast Listener
* Discovery Version 2 (MLDv2) for IPv6</i></a>.
*
* <p> The {@link #join(InetAddress,NetworkInterface)} method is used to
* join a group and receive all multicast datagrams sent to the group. A channel
* may join several multicast groups and may join the same group on several
* {@link NetworkInterface interfaces}. Membership is dropped by invoking the {@link
* MembershipKey#drop drop} method on the returned {@link MembershipKey}. If the
* underlying platform supports source filtering then the {@link MembershipKey#block
* block} and {@link MembershipKey#unblock unblock} methods can be used to block or
* unblock multicast datagrams from particular source addresses.
*
* <p> The {@link #join(InetAddress,NetworkInterface,InetAddress)} method
* is used to begin receiving datagrams sent to a group whose source address matches
* a given source address. This method throws {@link UnsupportedOperationException}
* if the underlying platform does not support source filtering. Membership is
* <em>cumulative</em> and this method may be invoked again with the same group
* and interface to allow receiving datagrams from other source addresses. The
* method returns a {@link MembershipKey} that represents membership to receive
* datagrams from the given source address. Invoking the key's {@link
* MembershipKey#drop drop} method drops membership so that datagrams from the
* source address can no longer be received.
*
* <h2>Platform dependencies</h2>
*
* The multicast implementation is intended to map directly to the native
* multicasting facility. Consequently, the following items should be considered
* when developing an application that receives IP multicast datagrams:
*
* <ol>
*
* <li><p> The creation of the channel should specify the {@link ProtocolFamily}
* that corresponds to the address type of the multicast groups that the channel
* will join. There is no guarantee that a channel to a socket in one protocol
* family can join and receive multicast datagrams when the address of the
* multicast group corresponds to another protocol family. For example, it is
* implementation specific if a channel to an {@link StandardProtocolFamily#INET6 IPv6}
* socket can join an {@link StandardProtocolFamily#INET IPv4} multicast group and receive
* multicast datagrams sent to the group. </p></li>
*
* <li><p> The channel's socket should be bound to the {@link
* InetAddress#isAnyLocalAddress wildcard} address. If the socket is bound to
* a specific address, rather than the wildcard address then it is implementation
* specific if multicast datagrams are received by the socket. </p></li>
*
* <li><p> The {@link StandardSocketOptions#SO_REUSEADDR SO_REUSEADDR} option should be
* enabled prior to {@link NetworkChannel#bind binding} the socket. This is
* required to allow multiple members of the group to bind to the same
* address. </p></li>
*
* </ol>
*
* <p> <b>Usage Example:</b>
* <pre>
* // join multicast group on this interface, and also use this
* // interface for outgoing multicast datagrams
* NetworkInterface ni = NetworkInterface.getByName("hme0");
*
* DatagramChannel dc = DatagramChannel.open(StandardProtocolFamily.INET)
* .setOption(StandardSocketOptions.SO_REUSEADDR, true)
* .bind(new InetSocketAddress(5000))
* .setOption(StandardSocketOptions.IP_MULTICAST_IF, ni);
*
* InetAddress group = InetAddress.getByName("225.4.5.6");
*
* MembershipKey key = dc.join(group, ni);
* </pre>
