| |
Replicate IGMP frames across all slaves in activebackup mode. This ensures fail-over is rapid for multicast traffic as well. Otherwise, multicast traffic will be lost until the next IGMP membership report poll timeout.
Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com> --- This is conceptually similar to the treatment of IGMP traffic in bond_alb_xmit. In that case, IGMP traffic transmitted on any slave is re-routed to the active slave in order to ensure that multicast traffic continues to be directed to the active receiver.
