Currently I have the below eth5 to receive multicast data for 239.1.1.31. It works.
$ ifconfig
eth5 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr E4:11:5B:94:E1:F3
inet addr:10.185.2.2 Bcast:10.185.2.31 Mask:255.255.255.224
...
Routes:
$ sudo ip route add 10.0.8.0/24 via 10.185.2.14 dev eth5
$ sudo ip route add 224.0.0.0/4 dev eth5
$ route -n

Now I have one more interface eth4 to receive multicast data for 239.1.1.201:
$ ifconfig
eth4 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr E4:11:5B:94:E1:F2
inet addr:10.185.130.2 Bcast:10.185.130.31 Mask:255.255.255.224
The below command failed.
$ sudo ip route add 10.0.8.0/24 via 10.185.130.14 dev eth4
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
$ sudo ip route add 224.0.0.0/4 dev eth4
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
How should I proceed to receive multicast data from two interfaces? Thanks.
