Back to search · Project homepage

Description

smcrouted is a static multicast routing daemon providing fine grained control over the multicast forwarding cache (MFC) in the UNIX kernel. Both IPv4 and IPv6 are fully supported. smcrouted can be used as an alternative to dynamic multicast daemons like mrouted(8), pimd(8) or pim6sd(8) in situations where static multicast routes should be maintained and/or no proper IGMP or MLD signaling exists.
