Thats really bad. So I assume it was forgotten. Ascend hasn't answered
here either, so I would probably better push a TR on this. Not that I
would need Mcast now but maybe I need it some day and it would be better
if it is available then. BTW, has anyone used Mcast in conjunction with
Ascend units yet and can say something about it ? Does it work ? I'd
try it myself but I have only a Max4k (with mcast) with downlinks (serial
and E1) to Max1800/Max2000s (no mcast) and a P50 (with mcast) with an
uplink to a Max2000 (no mcast) so none of the links is worth a try yet.
