Hi,

For the moment, there are significantly differences between
manufacturers for multicast support on LANE's BUS. For example, we
measure BUSes multicast support between 2% and 100% bandwidth last year.
As the products evolves rapidely, it's difficult to give a definite
answer, just test and see !
