+IO::Socket::Multicast - Perl extension to send and receive multicast messages
+
+The IO::Socket::Multicast module subclasses IO::Socket::INET to enable
+you to manipulate multicast groups. With this module (and an operating
+system that supports multicasting), you will be able to receive incoming
+multicast transmissions and generate your own outgoing multicast
+packets.
+
+This requires perl-IO-Interface.
