   Hi,

   My appologies if this is a common question, I have gone through a couple
of FAQs without finding it so:

   What is the current status of multicast when it comes to firewalls?

   I am curious about the following (off the top of my head):

   What commercial firewalls will support multicast?
   If there are any mc-capable firewalls, is it enabled (by default?) when
deployed?
   What tools do people use to get multicast through a firewall that is not
mc-enabled.
   What are the security implications of mc-enabling a firewall.

   The discussion does not have to be constrained to these items, please
join in if you think I am missing something.

   Regards,
