Multicast

Hello everyone, I am currently trying to expand multicast functionality for our lab(s).  I was wondering if it would be possible to run multiple instances of multicast by running them through separate ports. I know that just changing the port number in the pxelinux.cfg files won't allow multi-multicasting, but was curious if opening more ports to it could yield any better results.  Does anyone have experience trying something like this?  If not, is there documentation about the processes involved in multicasting?  Thanks,

- John

No. For the time being, even you modify the port, multiple instances of
multicast clone won't work on a DRBL server. Since there are more steps
you have to modify, especially the main program of clonezilla.
We will think about making this feature in the future. However, it won't
be in the near future.

Regards,
Steven.
