[Xorp-users] IPv6 Multicast ?

[Chris Robson NRL]

On a stock Fedora Core 5 linux-2.6.16-1.2080 distro with MRD6 running do 
you still need to install Hoerdt's IPv6 multicast patches?  Otherwise why 
is the following error occurring:

[ 2006/04/18 10:52:34  ERROR xorp_fea:2912 MFEA +986 mfea_mrouter.cc 
add_multicast_vif ] add_multicast_vif() failed: IPv6 multicast routing not 
supported
[ 2006/04/18 10:52:34  ERROR xorp_fea:2912 MFEA +908 mfea_node.cc start_vif 
] Cannot start vif eth1: cannot add the multicast vif to the kernel



Part of the config.boot file below:

     mfea6 {
         disable: false
         interface eth0 {
             vif eth0 {
                 disable: true
             }
         }
         interface eth1 {
             vif eth1 {
                 disable: false
             }
         }

         interface eth2 {
             vif eth2 {
                 disable: false
             }
         }
         interface eth3 {
             vif eth3 {
                 disable: true
             }
         }
         interface register_vif {
             vif register_vif {
                 disable: false
             }
         }
         traceoptions {
