RRAS Multicast Group Manager
Applies To: Windows Server 2008
The Multicast Group Manager (MGM) application programming interface (API) enables developers to write multicast routing protocols that interoperate with routers running the Multicast Group Manager. When more than one multicast routing protocol is enabled on a router, the MGM coordinates operations between all routing protocols. The MGM informs each routing protocol when group membership changes occur, and when multicast data from a new source or destined to a new group is received.
