MLDv1 is derived from IGMPv2, and MLDv2 from IGMPv3. IGMP uses IP

Protocol 2 message types, and MLD uses IP Protocol 58 message types,

which is a subset of the ICMPv6 messages.

MLDv2 adds the ability for a node to report interest in listening to

packets with a particular multicast address only from specific source

addresses as required to support Source-Specific Multicast (SSM), or

from all sources except for specific source addresses.

MLDv2 supports Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) which builds a reverse

tree from a host requesting a service back up to the multicast server.

Multicast hosts on the subnet may support either MLD versions 1 or 2.
