Hello,
I have a problem with multicast not coming 'out' of the virtual machine.
I am trying to set up a test environment of a three virtual machines on a single OpenVZ master host. I have quite some experience with OpenVZ, however haven't found a single working solution for the problem I am seeing now.
The environment is as follows:
- virtual machines with Debian Lenny Linux, two veth interfaces
- master host with Debian Lenny Linux, two VLANs, each VLAN bridged to one of the veth interfaces of a virtual machine
The virtual machines run the Linux VRRP userspace daemon, ucarp, which uses multicast to communicate with other VMs.
And finally, the problem is, that I cannot see the multicast traffic coming out of the VM, if I run tcpdump -i veth101.84 on master (101 is the VM's ID)
I can, however, see the traffic, if I run tcpdump inside the VM (tcpdump -i eth0.84).
The Linux kernel is 2.6.18-openvz el5.028stab064.7.szn5, based on RHEL's kernel el5.028stab064.7 with some specific addons for our environment.
I know that there has been an issue in the el5.028stab033 RHEL kernel, however that issue (according to various forums) has been resolved in stab034.
Does anyone has any idea, what could be the problem of not seeing the multicasts on veth?
Thanks in advance.
And now some details from the master:

I see that noone has replied so far - I haven't found the solution either, anyways I am trying again and adding some more details:
Adding mcast address to veth interface manually does not work - is this a bug or a feature?
[host]:~ $ ip maddr add 224.0.0.18 dev veth2084066.0
ioctl: Invalid argument

As you can see, the igmp v3 report (join/leave) passes from guest to host (veth interface), however vrrp advertisements do not.
