Well, in that case do what a switch would do: either you know from the 
multicast address which port should receive the packet or pass the 
packet to both ports.

Keep in mind, however, that lwIP currently does *not* support two 
interfaces on the same IP subnet. Well, it works, but you'll have to 
bind to a device to ensure packets go out from the correct netif.
