JGroups ignores mcast_addr attribute in XML when "jgroups.udp.mcast_addr" is set
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JGRP-792
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-792
             Project: JGroups
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.6.2
         Environment: linux, JDK 1.6, JBoss 4.2.1.GA
            Reporter: Jacek Gerbszt
         Assigned To: Bela Ban


JGroups seems to ignore mcast_addr attribute of <UDP/> element in XML configuration file used as a parameter in JChannel constructor,  when the system property "jgroups.udp.mcast_addr" is set.
This behaviour has been observed on JBoss 4.2.1.GA started with an argument: -u 239.192.0.5. I'm trying to connect to group in the start() method of my MBean:
public void start() throws ChannelException {
		channel = new JChannel("my-udp.xml");
		channel.connect("MyGroup");
		UDP udp = (UDP) channel.getProtocolStack().findProtocol(UDP.class);
		log.info(udp.getInfo());
}

Unfortunately log.info() shows that channel is connected to 239.192.0.5 instead of IP configured in my-udp.xml. 
It is a big problem when you want to connect from jboss to two different groups with two different multicast addresses.
