RK
32If neither a group nor port are specified then the local DisOrder
33configuration is consulted to find the server and the server is asked where the
34RTP stream is.
35.PP
36If just a port is specified then the RTP stream is assumed to be unicast or
37broadcast to that port.
38.PP
39If a group and a port are specified then the RTP stream is assumed to be
40multicast to that group and port.
