The goal of this test is to validate that the driver properly configures the MAC filter to allow the multicast packets to be passed by the µCµC/TCP-IP module when the target is registered to a multicast group. Also, the test ensures that, when the target is unregistered from the multicast group, multicast packets are dropped by the MAC filter. Anchor10176471017647

The following steps are performed by NDIT to validate the behavior of the driver: Anchor10177421017742
