Do not use the multicast address 224.0.0.1.  It is reserved for some
various ipv4 operations.

Try using 225.0.0.9.  If you have a switch between the two subnets, I
would expect RHCS to work.  If you have a router, I'd expect it not to
work as the TTL must be set for multicast packets to hop across routers.
For IPV6 the hop count must be set.  It appears you are using ipv4.

If you have a switch and it doesn't work, try turning off IGMP filtering
in the switch +if it is a smart switch.  If it is a dumb switch it
should just work with some additional latencies.
