To listen for UDP multicast packets, the standard nc (netcat) utility is usually insufficient on its own because it lacks native IGMP join support. You must use socat or an updated netcat variant like ncat (from Nmap) to successfully join the multicast group and see the traffic.Here are the exact commands to accomplish this, ordered by reliability.
This is the most reliable tool for multicast because it explicitly handles the IGMP group join request and can display the source IP address.
socat -v UDP4-RECVFROM:9131,ip-add-membership=239.255.250.250:0.0.0.0,fork -
