Ok, thanks for the clarification. So if you want multicast, advanced zone it is.

Security groups block multicast / broadcast traffic (except for ARP).
Security groups are by default deny all, except for added rules. You can't
add a multicast rule.

True that we're not doing VRRP on VR in basic zone, but at least on the KVM side, multicast should work as long as you are allowing it on the hosts. Are you indicating that's not possible with xenserver?

The ACS virtual routers use VRRP for high availability, so yes you shouldn't have a problem with multicast. Just make sure you're allowing multicast on your host servers from an iptables perspective.
