Queue Backplane Multicast; Restrict-Flooding - Dell Force10 S4810P Reference Manual

Usage
Mtrace is an IGMP protocol based on the Multicast trace route facility and implemented
Information
according to the IETF draft "A
ipm-01.txt). FTOS supports the Mtrace client and transmit functionality.
As an Mtrace client, FTOS transmits Mtrace queries, receives, parses, and prints out the
details in the response packet received.
As an Mtrace transit or intermediate router, FTOS returns the response to Mtrace queries.
After receiving the Mtrace request, FTOS computes the RPF neighbor for the source, fills in the
request and the forwards the request to the RPF neighbor. While computing the RPF neighbor,
the static mroute and mBGP route is preferred over the unicast route.
