I don't think that's an option. The CPU is dimensioned for switch management. For the RTL838x, using the current ethernet driver, it tends to break down completely at 30-40 Mbits/s. Multicast offloading is necessary to be able to use one of these devices for e.g IPTV. Which definitely is a relevant use case.
