It might be odd to have a test system configured without multicast 
enabled but it's not wrong. So I think the test should pass.

I think it would be useful for tests such as this one to print the 
network interface configuration at the start. That might be something 
for a supporting method in jdk.test.lib.NetworkConfiguration (if there 
isn't anything already).
