      This is a follow-up to the discussion on net-dev from 2018 starting here:
      https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/net-dev/2018-September/011731.html

      From what I can tell, IPV6_MULTICAST_ALL was added to the Linux 4.20 kernel so is already available in many distros. We should look into this again with a view to disabling this socket option by default (as we do with IP_MULTICAST_ALL).
