Usage in Deno
import { Socket } from "node:dgram";
Socket.prototype.setMulticastTTL(ttl: number): number
Sets the IP_MULTICAST_TTL
socket option. While TTL generally stands for
"Time to Live", in this context it specifies the number of IP hops that a
packet is allowed to travel through, specifically for multicast traffic. Each
router or gateway that forwards a packet decrements the TTL. If the TTL is
decremented to 0 by a router, it will not be forwarded.
The ttl
argument may be between 0 and 255. The default on most systems is 1
.
This method throws EBADF
if called on an unbound socket.
