Hi, all, I have a network situation that needs to be solved:

PC1 has 2 Ethernet Ports EN1 IP=192.168.0.1, EN2 IP=192.168.1.20

PC2 has 1 Ethernet Port EN1 IP=192.168.1.50,
and is on the same physical network as PC1's EN2 port

PC3 has 1 Ethernet Port EN1 IP = 192.168.0.100
and is on the same physical network as PC1's EN1 port

Using multicast, I want to be able to send UDP packet from PC2 EN1 interface to be received both by PC1's EN2 interface face as well as PC3's EN1 interface( and only received by PC3 and PC1)

Any help or suggestion how (with details) I should setup this thing?

Thanks in advance!
 
ewwwww.

See if you can get the OS to support PIM or mulicast forwarding. If you wanna get down and dirty you could bridge the connections.

mulicast by nature doesn't cross a router/layer3 boundary. There may be software out there to do it, but I'm used to "the network" handling this sort of thing.
 
I don't think you can do this, especially in windows, as the mcast tool (generate mcast packets) is bound by IP (aka single nic)
