Closed as program error.
Error description
IGMPv3 implementation requires an application to perform JOIN Group in order to receive packets sent to that group. However with IGMPv2, for the all-hosts IPv4 (224.0.0.1) and IPv6 (ff02::1) group, it doesn't necessitates a JOIN Group for packet delivery. Hence with IGMPv3, the UDP layer drops the packets sent to the all-hosts group.
Local fix
Problem summary
Without joining a allhosts multicast group, the application will experience packet drop.
Problem conclusion
A new no option igmpv2_deliver has been added to solve this issue.
Temporary fix
