  2. ==========================
  3. These filters drop IGMP/MLD packets before they enter the mesh and
  4. filter any IGMP/MLD packets coming from the mesh.
  5. IGMP/MLD have the concept of a local, elected Querier. For more
  6. decentralization and increased robustness, the idea of this package is
  7. to split the IGMP/MLD domain a querier is responsible for, allowing to
  8. have a querier per node. The split IGMP/MLD domain will also reduce
  9. overhead for this packet type, increasing scalability.
  10. Beware of the consequences of using this package though: You might need
  11. to explicitly, manually mark ports on snooping switches leading towards
  12. your mesh node as multicast router ports for now (Multicast Router
  13. Discovery, MRD, not implemented yet).
