多点广播

Datagram只允许数据报发送给指定的目标地址，而MulticastSocket可以将数据报以广播方式发送到数量不等的多个客户端。

IP协议为多点广播提供了这批特殊的IP地址，这些IP地址的范围是224.0.0.0至239.255.255.255。

  MulticastSocket 常用的方法：

MulticastSocket(int port) ：创建多播套接字并将其绑定到特定端口。创建一个MulticastSocket对象后，还需要将该MulticastSocket加入到指定的多点广播地址，如果结束也需要脱离多点广播地址。
void joinGroup(InetAddress mcastaddr) ：加入多播组。 
void leaveGroup(InetAddress mcastaddr) ：离开多播组。 
void setLoopbackMode(boolean disable) ：启用/禁用多播数据报的本地回送。true 表示禁用 LoopbackMode。
