Issue description:

RFC 2461 is not clear on whether it is possible for 
a node to act as a router on one or more interfaces 
and a host on other interface(s). The distinction
between the two functions is not clearly done on
a per interface basis. 

Suggestion: We need to explicitly state that the 
distinction between acting as a host or router 
is configurable for each interface. 

The following text is included in section 6.2.1 of the 
current draft:

For each multicast interface:

   IsRouter       A flag indicating whether routing is enabled on 
                  this interface. Enabling routing on the interface 
                  would imply that a router can forward packets 
                  to or from the interface. 

This issue is now resolved
