| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| InvalidOperationException | The multicast group has already been joined or a join operation is currently in progress. |

The BeginJoinGroup method binds a UDP multicast socket to a local port and joins a multicast group to allow datagrams to be received from any multicast group participant. The local port and multicast group address are specified in the UdpAnySourceMulticastClient constructor.
The method specified in the callback parameter is invoked when the operation to join the multicast group has completed.
If required by the runtime, the BeginJoinGroup method also performs a policy check to verify that the client is allowed to access the multicast group. If the client is not allowed access, a SocketException is thrown with AccessDenied.
