+.SH NAME
+mnc \- Multicast NetCat
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.BR mnc
+[ -l ] [ -i interface ] [ -p port ] group-id [ source-address ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B mnc
+is designed for simple multicast debugging and testing. It supports
+IPv4 and IPv6 any-source multicast and source-specific multicast.
+In standard mode it will multicast the standard-input verbatim.
+In listening mode it recieves the content and displays it on the
+standard output.
+.PP
+When given the optional source-address, mnc will attempt to use
+source-specific multicast. You may also specify this address
+in standard mode and mnc will use this source-address for
+outgoing packets.
+.PP
+.SH OPTIONS
+.IP \-l
+Listen for multicast packets. Default is to send.
+.IP \-i\ "interface"
+When listening for multicast packets, use the specified interface.
+.IP \-p\ "port"
+Specify a UDP port to use for sending or receiving packets. Default is to use port 1234.
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+.BR nc (1)
+.PP
+.SH EXAMPLES
+To send IPv4 packets to an ASM group-id:
+.PP
+.RS
+mnc 233.1.2.3
+.RE
+.PP
+To receive IPv4 ASM packets from the same group-id, using eth0 as
+the listening interface:
+.PP
+.RS
+mnc -l -i eth0 233.1.2.3
+.RE
+.PP
+To receive IPv4 packets from an SSM group-id, using eth1 as the
+listening interface and 193.1.219.90 as the permitted source:
+.PP
+.RS
+mnc -l -i eth1 232.0.0.1 193.1.219.90
+.RE
+.PP
+To receive IPv6 packets from an SSM group-id, using eth1 as the
+listening interface and 2001:770:18:2::90 as the permitted source:
+.PP
+.RS
+mnc -l -i eth1 ff31::12 2001:770:18:2::90
