Normally this protocol is + not used directly, except by the kernel itself, in response to multicast + membership requests by user applications. Multicast routing protocol daemons + may open a raw socket to directly interact with <code class="Nm">mld</code> + and receive membership reports.</p> +<p class="Pp">As of <span class="Ux">FreeBSD 8.0</span>, MLD version 2 is + implemented. This adds support for Source-Specific Multicast (SSM), whereby + applications may communicate to upstream multicast routers that they are + only interested in receiving multicast streams from particular sources.
