Hi Vivien

I'm just trying to avoid the use of 'multicast group' for a L2 entity,
unless it is already widespread used so in the bridge code. If the
bridge code does consider L2 a 'multciast group', fine, lets document
it so. But if the bridge code only uses 'multciast group' to mean L3,
we should not use it here for L2.
