Using the other routermode options

As described earlier, routermode=multicastrouter is just a shortcut for the two IP
addresses for DVMRP and PIM.

The mode routermode=none stops any reserved multicast addresses from being identified
as coming from routers.

Conversely, the mode routermode=all means that all reserved multicast addresses
(224.0.0.1 to 224.0.0.255) are identified as coming from routers.
