NAME

SYNOPSIS
pmsft [file]
DESCRIPTION
The pmsft utility specifies a Multicast Source Filter (MSF) using APIs
specified in Socket Interface Extention for MSF (RFC3678). Since pmsft
adopts a protocol-independent API, both IPv4 and IPv6 MSF are supported.
pmsft specifies an MSF on command-prompt "pmsft>". Here is the list of
commands that can be specified:
j grp ifname
join a group grp on interface ifname.
l group ifname
leave a group grp on interface ifname.
i grp ifname num
set an include mode MSF for group grp on interface ifname.
(followed by num lines of source addresses)
e grp ifname num
set an exclude mode MSF for group grp on interface ifname.
(followed by num lines of source addresses)
t grp ifname src
accept multicast packets from src to grp on interface ifname
b grp ifname src
deny multicast packets from src to grp on interface ifname
g grp ifname num
get and show MSF regarding group grp on interface ifname
(atmost num sources).
s seconds
sleep for the specified seconds.
f filename
read command(s) from file filename.
q quit pmsft
If there is an optional argument file , it is equivalent to the following
command:
pmsft> f file
HISTORY

supporting only IGMPv3.
