+ * @brief Mcast Adjacency

+ * The multicast adjacency forwards IP traffic on an interface toward a multicast
+ * group address. This is a different type of adjacency to a unicast adjacency
+ * since the application of the MAC header is different, and so the VLIB node
+ * visited is also different. DPO types have different VLIB nodes.
