A Multicast router (Mrouter) port is a port that connects to a Multicast router. The
switch includes the multicast router port(s) when it forwards the multicast streams
and IGMP/MLD registration messages. This is required in order for all the multicast
routers can in turn forward the multicast streams and propagate the registration
messages to other subnets.
On this page, it is possible to statically configure or dynamically detect which
ports are connected to Mrouters.
