Also, if a switch does not do MLD snooping, it will flood multicast to all ports. You lose one of the major benefits of IPv6 multicast - less admin traffic.
Agreed; but just to be fair: there is still a difference between multicast being flodded everywhere and boradcast being flooded everywhere ... L2 interrupt vs. L2+L3 interrupt; bigger difference than it sounds ;). /TJ
