IPv6 Multicast Routing Daemon

mrd6 is a modular IPv6 Multicast Routing Daemon which implements:

  * MLDv1 and MLDv2 support
    - MLD proxying
  * PIM-SM (ASM and SSM)
    - Bootstrap (BSR) Mechanism support
    - Static RP configuration
    - Embedded-RP support (RFC 3956)
  * partial MBGP support
    - Implements basic BGP4 mechanisms (IPv6 Multicast SAFI)
      to update local MRIB from MBGP info
    - Uses IPv6 Multicast SAFI prefixes announced by
      peers to update local MRIB
    - Is able to announce local prefixes
    - Filter support
  * Supports both native and virtual (tunnel) interfaces
    (tested IPv6-IPv4, IPv6-IPv6 and TUN/TAP tunnels)
  * Abstract Forwarding Interface (MFA) with user-space module
  * Remote configuration and online administration
