Review request for geode, anilkumar gingade, Hitesh Khamesra, Jason Huynh, and Jianxia Chen.


Repository: geode


Description
-------

JGroups is selecting an IPv6 multicast address, translating the given IPv4 mcast address into an equivalent IPv6 address, but this doesn't work on all machines and so causes all multicast messages to be dropped.

The fix is to tell JGroups it is using an IPv4 stack unless the preferIPv6Addresses property is set.

I'm also disabling use of multicast except in the case where it has been requested for cache operations.  JGroups will still be used to send certain broadcast messages but it will be via point-to-point UDP instead of multicast.
