nsOspfMulticastExtensions

A Bit Mask indicating whether  the  router  is
forwarding  IP  multicast  (Class  D) datagrams
based on the algorithms defined in  the  Multi-
cast Extensions to OSPF.
              
Bit 0, if set, indicates that  the  router  can
forward  IP multicast datagrams in the router's
directly attached areas (called intra-area mul-
ticast routing).
              
Bit 1, if set, indicates that  the  router  can
forward  IP  multicast  datagrams  between OSPF
areas (called inter-area multicast routing).
              
Bit 2, if set, indicates that  the  router  can
forward  IP  multicast  datagrams between Auto-
nomous Systems (called inter-AS multicast rout-
ing).
              
Only certain combinations of bit  settings  are
allowed,  namely: 0 (no multicast forwarding is
              
enabled), 1 (intra-area multicasting  only),  3
(intra-area  and  inter-area  multicasting),  5
(intra-area and inter-AS  multicasting)  and  7
(multicasting  everywhere). By default, no mul-
ticast forwarding is enabled.
