==========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
These filters drop IGMP/MLD packets before they enter the mesh and
|
||
|
filter any IGMP/MLD packets coming from the mesh.
|
||
|
|
||
|
IGMP/MLD have the concept of a local, elected Querier. For more
|
||
|
decentralization and increased robustness, the idea of this package is
|
||
|
to split the IGMP/MLD domain a querier is responsible for, allowing to
|
||
|
have a querier per node. The split IGMP/MLD domain will also reduce
|
||
|
overhead for this packet type, increasing scalability.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Beware of the consequences of using this package though: You might need
|
||
|
to explicitly, manually mark ports on snooping switches leading towards
|
||
|
your mesh node as multicast router ports for now (Multicast Router
|
||
|
Discovery, MRD, not implemented yet).
