Multicast filtering is done in the firmware level. On initialization, the multicast filter is disabled and all multicast frames are sent to the host. To get only specific multicast frames, register to specific multicast groups; only those groups will be filtered in, while all other multicast frames are dropped. The WiLink8 software supports up to eight different multicast groups that can be configured. The multicast filter should only work for the STA role, as the AP role should distribute all multicast frames to all other devices.
