MLD Snooping
Hosts use the MLD protocol to report their participation in Multicast sessions, and
the device uses MLD snooping to build Multicast membership lists. It uses these
lists to forward Multicast packets only to device ports where there are host nodes
that are members of the Multicast groups. The device does not support MLD
Querier.
