The text is saying that the specification does not use any of the LID fields in the verbs interface, that is it. It isn't talking about MAC addresses. Exactly how and where the MAC address comes about was never decided, and at least some participants thought it should be a

But, we can't mandate an overload of the GID in a way that it prevents its use as a true L3 address (eventually routable). Actually I'm beginning to think that the only possible way we can use the GID in IBoE is as a link-local IPv6 addresses containing an Ethernet address. Trying

A quibble about multicast - AFAIK this is unsolved. I think some spec needs to be agreed that documents what sort of multicast snooping operations switches need to do, ie if IGMP joins imply that IBoE traffic for the same DMAC is included in the join, or if IBoE requires a

No, I think all switches will flood unknown multicast packets. But there is a reason that IGMP snooping was invented -- it is inefficient (to say the least) to flood all multicast traffic. And by the way I view the fact that the IBoE spec does not say anything at all about how to map MGIDs

Small correction needed regarding the multicast forwarding. Since we are talking about IPv6 multicast groups, which translate to 33:33:xx:xx:xx:xx MAC address, the router listener notification protocol is going to be MLD and not IGMP. Still there are switches which support MLD forwarding
