<longdescription>
IGMP/MLD proxies offer the possibility option to combine
local multicast networks with a larger multicast infrastructure.
In contrast to multicast routers, proxies are lightweight and
do not require the support of a multicast routing protocol such as PIM or DVMRP.
A common use case is a local stub networks that interconnects with
a remote multicast routing domain, e.g. via a tunnel.
But it can also be used in PMIPv6 domain to enable multicast for sources and listeners (RFC 6224).
The Mcproxy meets the requirements of the IGMP/MLD proxying standard (RFC 4605)
and has additional functionalities. The multicast proxy can be instantiated multiple times,
is dynamically configurable at runtime, supports multiple upstreams and peering-interfaces
for a non hierarchical interconnection of multicast proxies.
