ip mroute-boundary
Adds or deletes scoped multicast address boundaries for a router interface. When a user on the specified
interface joins the multicast group as defined by the scoped address—plus the mask length—all multicast
traffic will stop being forwarded on that interface. This provides a mechanism for the end user to control
multicast traffic from the network.
