Multicast problem

[Ahsai]

Hi all,

Can we send data via a multicast socket by using SSL? Anyone can give me some reference on it.

Please help, much thanks!

Hi,

I don't think that there is a ratified standard for secure multicasting,
nearest is the RMP which is the Reliable Multicast Protocol - you could
try looking in the Java JSSE (Secure Socket Extensions) library but I couldn't
find anything.

The other option you have is to encrypt the data prior to sending, however if
a packet doesn't make it your in trouble.

Sorry I cannot help further.
