Hi,
Is there any way to detect clients joining the multicast address in the
server software?
Well, there a GLOP addresses, if you have your own AS. If you don't
you can ask you service provider. I am guessing you are asking for a
global multicast address, since you can use a site local or link local
multicast address freely as you'd like (and only upset the people in
your own site if you step on someone else).
Here are some helpful links:
