* Abstract: As of now NS-3 is not supporting MLDv2 or PIM-SM. As a result of this we are setting up the routes manually . This is stopping us from simulating Multicast environments which would reflect the realistic scenarios. In real life, nodes join and leave different multicast groups quite frequently and they also mention the sources in which they are interested in. By using this information there is lot of scope for optimization of the multicast traffic .  My proposal is to make the NS-3 support to Multicast more realistic by implementing MLDv2 protocol .This helps in discovery of Multicast Listeners and also know the sources they are interested in.This will help in opening up a platform for implementing different multicast routing protocols .
