Subject:   -81- What is sending packets to the sgi-dog.mcast.net
                multicast address?

  The objectserver. It's using that address intentionally; SGI just
  didn't bother to define a new one. Scott Henry <scotth@sgi.com> points
  out that if you don't use any directoryservers and want to get rid of
  the objectserver multicast packets, you can add '-t 0' to
  /etc/config/objectserver.options and they will go away.
