lan_add_multi(9r)
NAME
  lan_add_multi - Network: Adds a multicast address to the multicast table

SYNOPSIS
  int lan_add_multi(
	  struct lan_multi *lmt,
	  unsigned char *maddr );

ARGUMENTS
  lmt Specifies a pointer to the multicast table.

  maddr
      Specifies a pointer to the multicast address to add to the table.

DESCRIPTION
  The lan_add_multi interface adds a multicast address to the multicast
  table. If the address already exists in the table, lan_add_multi simply
  increments the reference count. If the address is new, it adds the address
  to the table at the first available location.

  The driver should check the return value to determine whether the table has
  changed. If so, it should update the hardware.

RETURN VALUES
  On successful completion, the lan_add_multi interface returns one of the
  following values:

  LAN_MULTI_FAIL
      Indicates that the multicast address could not be added to the table.

  LAN_MULTI_NOT_CHANGED
      Indicates that the multicast table did not change.

  LAN_MULTI_CHANGED
      The multicast address changed; the driver should update the hardware.
