Eugene

Many thanks for your reply!

I need to read more about tablearg and then modify my current production rules step by step.

Thank you again!

Also, use table arguments and not only table values, do not ignore their 
existence:

ipfw table $Mcast1_iface_out add vlan20 $mcast11
ipfw table $Mcast1_iface_out add vlan20 $mcast12
ipfw table $Mcast1_iface_out add vlan20 $mcast13
ipfw add 25000 allow udp from IP1 to tablearg out xmit 
"table($Mcast1_iface_out)"

Note there is one single checking ipfw rules for all used pairs 
($Mcast1_iface_out, $mcastXX)
and this time it is not micro-optimization but very important one when you have 
plenty of mcastXX.

I have to correct myself: ipfw table cannot contain multiple values differing 
with arguments only,
so we should rewrite commands this way: first table contains just list of used 
multicast destination IPs:

Mcast_addr_out=1
ipfw table $Mcast_addr_out create type addr
ipfw table $Mcast_addr_out add $mcast11 25012 # use range of rules 25012-49999
ipfw table $Mcast_addr_out add $mcast12 25014 # increment rule number by 2
ipfw table $Mcast_addr_out add $mcast13 25016

And you have multiple tables for list of interfaces, one table per multicast 
destination:

Mcast1_iface_out=2
ipfw table $Mcast1_iface_out create type iface
ipfw table $Mcast1_iface_out add vlan20
ipfw table $Mcast1_iface_out add vlan22
ipfw table $Mcast1_iface_out add vlan39

Then you start filtering by splitting traffic by destination IP that is most 
efficient:

ipfw add 25000 skipto tablearg from $IP1 to "table($Mcast_addr_out)"
ipfw add 25010 deny udp from $your_multicast_range to any
ipfw add 25011 skipto 50000 ip from any to any # past this set of checks

Only traffic destined for specific IP hits the rule checking for outgoing 
interface:

ipfw add 25012 allow udp from any to any out xmit "table($Mcast1_iface_out)"
ipfw add 25013 deny udp from any to any

ipfw add 25014 allow udp from any to any out xmit "table($Mcast2_iface_out)"
ipfw add 25015 deny udp from any to any

And so on.
