> Title : Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) for IPv6
> Author(s) : S. Deering, B. Fenner, B. Haberman

>     This document specifies the protocol used by an IPv6 router to
>     discover the presence of multicast listeners (that is, nodes
>     wishing to receive multicast packets) on its directly attached
>     links, and to discover specifically which multicast addresses are
>     of interest to those neighboring nodes.  This protocol is referred
>     to as Multicast Listener Discovery or MLD.
>
>     MLD is derived from version 2 of IPv4's Internet Group Management
>     Protocol, IGMPv2.  One important difference to note is that MLD
>     uses ICMPv6 (IP Protocol 58) message types, rather than IGMP (IP
>     Protocol 2) message types.
