I tested the new change to user PPP that bypasses alias processing
for IGMP packets and for IP to IP tunnel packets that carry a payload
that has a multicast destination.

This change will allow a PPP host enabled with the "-alias" option to
run mrouted. This does not intend to forward the IGMP nor tunneled packets
to another host on the far side if the tun0 interface.

The context "diff" for the changes to /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp is at

	ftp://ftp.cs.ndsu.nodak.edu/pub/freebsd/misc/ppp_igmp.diff

and is dated May 29 1998. The previous version of this file only
allowed the IGMP routing packets to bypass the alias section.

--mark.
