Well, at least I knew I wasn't missing anything either (but I'm only running
2.2.6-RELEASE). From reading the CVS tree, it looks like it's been this way
since 2.1.0-RELEASE.
So...it sounds like the answer to FAQ 10.15 ("How do I enable IP multicast
support?") should read something like this:
-----
Multicast host operations are fully supported in FreeBSD 2.0 and above by
default. If you want your box to run as a multicast router, you will need to
recompile your kernel with the MROUTING option and run mrouted. FreeBSD 2.2
and newer can run mrouted at boot time by setting mrouted_enable to "YES" in
/etc/rc.conf.
MBONE tools are available in their own ports category...
-----
Should I file a PR on this?
Bruce.
