Abstract
Some multi-access link-layer technologies typically not provide good IPv6 multicast performance, using link-layer multicasts, when the volume of multicast traffic is significant. It would be possible to replicate and then link-layer unicast multicast IPv6 traffic to interested listeners to overcome these link-layer performance limitations. This memo describes MLDv2 and IPv6 neighbor discovery procedures to support link-layer unicast delivery of multicast IPv6 traffic.
