Hi.
IMO you don't have to know a UDP details of multicast traffic for
particular group, you will translate all multicast for this group to an
arbitrary UDP port of your choice for directed broadcast and than back.
Just reverse an example below from
broadcast <-> multicast <-> broadcast
to
multicast <-> broadcast <-> multicast

Using tunnels is a tricky Q cause they usually say in preamble that you
cannot create any new interface unless it is necessary to accomplish a
task. So this is usually a Q to proctor.
