Defining Multicast Router Ports
A Multicast router (Mrouter) port is a port that connects to a Multicast router. The
switch includes the Multicast router port(s) when it forwards the Multicast streams
and IGMP/MLD registration messages. This is required so that the Multicast
routers can, in turn, forward the Multicast streams and propagate the registration
messages to other subnets.
