Title : Multicast Listener Discovery Version 2 (MLDv2) for IPv6
Author(s) : R. Vida, L. Costa
Filename : draft-vida-mld-v2-08.txt
Pages : 57
Date : 2003-12-3
This document updates RFC 2710, and it specifies Version 2 of the
Multicast Listener Discovery Protocol (MLDv2). MLD is used by an
IPv6 router to discover the presence of multicast listeners on
directly attached links, and to discover which multicast addresses
are of interest to those neighboring nodes. MLDv2 is designed to
be interoperable with MLDv1. MLDv2 adds the ability for a node to
report interest in listening to packets with a particular multicast
address only from specific source addresses or from all sources
except for specific source addresses.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-vida-mld-v2-08.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
