Remarks
Loopback for Internet Protocol (IP) multicast datagrams.
The value of this socket option is a Boolean that controls the <em>loopback</em> of multicast datagrams. The value of the socket option represents if the option is enabled or disabled.
The exact semantics of this socket options are system dependent. In particular, it is system dependent whether the loopback applies to multicast datagrams sent from the socket or received by the socket. For StandardProtocolFamily#INET6 IPv6 sockets then it is system dependent whether the option also applies to multicast datagrams sent to IPv4 addresses.
The initial/default value of this socket option is TRUE. An implementation allows this socket option to be set after the socket is bound. Whether the socket option can be queried or changed prior to binding the socket is system dependent.
