You'd have to set up multicast routing on the firewall to do that. That's
a lot more complicated than just making a multicast packet.

If you want to make a multicast packet, on a default install of Solaris
you can just,

  $ ping -I1 224.0.0.1

For real fun (if you have other Solaris systems on the LAN with the default
multicasting setup). A "ping 224.0.0.1" will also work fine on a Windows
box (Win2k anyway).
