| 1 | Behaviour of Cards Under Multicast | ||
| 2 | ================================== | ||
| 3 | |||
| 4 | This is how they currently behave, not what the hardware can do--for example, | ||
| 5 | the Lance driver doesn't use its filter, even though the code for loading | ||
| 6 | it is in the DEC Lance-based driver. | ||
| 7 | |||
| 8 | The following are requirements for multicasting | ||
| 9 | ----------------------------------------------- | ||
| 10 | AppleTalk Multicast hardware filtering not important but | ||
| 11 | avoid cards only doing promisc | ||
| 12 | IP-Multicast Multicast hardware filters really help | ||
| 13 | IP-MRoute AllMulti hardware filters are of no help | ||
| 14 | |||

| 59 | PROMISC = This multicast mode is in fact promiscuous mode. Avoid using | ||
| 60 | cards who go PROMISC on any multicast in a multicast kernel. | ||

| 62 | (#) = Hardware multicast support is not used yet. | ||
