Dear Vazman,
Thanks! How about the question 2? Is it depends on the metric of the unicast routing table?

1. The multicast source (server) is not part of the group. The server will
be sending traffic to the multicast group address. If the server also need
to receive multicast traffic then it would have to join the group but that
is not the case is most scenarios.
