    66At first we describe the Kernel tables which are used and manipulated by the mcproxy.
    77
    8 === IPv4 ===
    9 * /proc/net/igmp
     8=== Tables (IPv4 | IPv6)===
     9* /proc/net/igmp | /proc/net/igmp6
    1010 * This table shows the multiast group subscriptions of your system for every interface. The multicast group addresses are written in hexadecimal and network byte order. For example an ip address like FEDCBA98 means 152.186.220.254. The mcproxy subscribe a multicast group on the upstream interface for every subscritption heard on the downstream side. This can be seen in the igmp table.
    11 * /proc/net/ip_mr_vif
     11* /proc/net/ip_mr_vif | /proc/net/ip6_mr_vif
    1212 * This table shows interfaces which are registarte to forward multicast traffic. These interfaces are identified by an virtual interface index (vif). All interface used by the mcproxy registrate here.
    13 * /proc/net/ip_mr_cache
     13* /proc/net/ip_mr_cache | /proc/net/ip6_mr_cache
    1414 * This table shows the multicast forwarding rules. All interfaces used in this table associated with a vif.
    1515
    1616=== IPv6 ===
    1717The following ipv6 tables shows the same contain like the ipv4 tables. They are only available if you configure and compile your own Linux-Kernel. For more details see [wiki:Kernel here].
