The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'Source Address Selection for Multicast Listener Discovery Protocol (RFC 2710)' <draft-ietf-magma-mld-source-07.txt> as a Proposed Standard. This document is the product of the Multicast & Anycast Group Membership Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Thomas Narten and Erik Nordmark. Technical Summary The neighbor discovery specification allows using the unspecified address as source for certain MLD messages but this is not captured in the MLD specification. This document updates the MLD specification with source address rules that are consistent with neighbor discovery. Working Group Summary There was WG consensus to advance this document. Protocol Quality The document has been reviewed for the IESG by Erik Nordmark.
