Description
I have a power monitor that sends data as UDP multicast. I tried a lot of things and found out that Influxdb can't ingest UDP data if it is a multicast.
Contributor guide
Research direction
The report concerns InfluxDB's inability to consume UDP multicast data from a power monitor. Start by reproducing multicast ingestion and tracing the UDP input path; done means multicast packets are ingested successfully.
