Description

If we try to start broker when there is no network cable on the machine where broker is running, the broker throws an exception and dies. This happens with multicast discovery. If the broker is configured to use static IP:s, then the broker does not crash at startup. We are using the broker in network of brokers configuration in store and forward mode.
