The exact value is set by IP_MAX_MEMBERSHIPS which can be found on Linux in
/usr/include/bits/in.h.  Although this explicitly for groups on one
socket, as such in OpenPGM you will get an error trying assign more than 20
groups to one transport.

Modern BSDs have bumped this to 4095 for larger scaling of OSPF, but I've
certainly seen and swapped out hardware that only supports 2.
