5.7.2.4 Multicast Filtering

Multicasts are similar to broadcasts, they are sent to all end stations on a LAN or VLAN. Multicast filtering is the function,
which end stations can receive the multicast traffic if the connected ports had been included in the specific multicast
groups. With multicast filtering, network devices only forward multicast traffic to the ports that are connected to the
registered end stations.
