2.6.7 IGMP Control

IGMP Snooping is the process of listening to IGMP traffic and is a feature that allows the

switch to

“

listen in

”

on the IGMP conversation between hosts and routers by processing the

layer 3 packets IGMP packets sent in a multicast network.

When IGMP snooping is enabled, this Residential Gateway analyses all the IGMP packets

between hosts connected to it and multicast routers in the network. When it hears an IGMP

report from a host for a given multicast group, it adds the host's port number to the multicast

list for that group. And, when it hears an IGMP Leave, it removes the host's port from the

table entry.

IGMP snooping can effectively reduce multicast traffic from streaming and other bandwidth

intensive IP applications. This gateway using IGMP snooping will only forward multicast

traffic to the hosts interested in that traffic. This reduction of multicast traffic reduces the

packet processing at the gateway and also reduces the workload at the end hosts.

Select

IGMP Control

from the

Switch Configuration

menu,

then

page shows up.

NAT

IGMP Proxy:

Enable or disable IGMP Proxy. When enabled, all clients attached to the

Residential Gateway will receive multicast data. Please note that IGMP Proxy and IGMP

Snooping can not be selected at the same time.

Proxy Fast Leave:

Enable or disable Proxy Fast Leave. When enabled, the Residential

Gateway removes the interface from the forwarding table immediately when the leave

message is received. Please ensure that only one host is attached to the each interface

when Fast Leave is enabled; otherwise, multicast traffic to other hosts attached to the

interface will be dropped.

Bridge

IGMP Snooping:

Enable or disable IGMP Snooping. When enabled, all clients that respond

with a join message will receive multicast data. Please note that IGMP Proxy and IGMP

Snooping can not be selected at the same time.

Snooping Fast Leave:

Enable or disable Snooping Fast Leave. When enabled, the

Residential Gateway removes the interface from the forwarding table immediately when the

leave message is received. Please ensure that only one host is attached to the each

interface when Fast Leave is enabled; otherwise, multicast traffic to other hosts attached to

the interface will be dropped.

Snooping Congestion Control:

There are three modes available. However, when you

enable MVR, the

“

Transparent Mode

”

is the only option that can be selected.

Enable report suppression and join aggregation:

The Residential Gateway

forwards only one (the first) IGMP report and join message from all hosts to multicast

devices. Other reports or join messages sent will be filtered. Enabling report

suppression can prevent the same reports from being sent to multicast devices.

Enable report suppression:

The Residential Gateway forwards only one (the first)

IGMP report from all hosts to multicast devices. Enabling report suppression can

prevent the same reports from being sent to multicast devices.

Transparent Mode:

All join and leave messages are forwarded to multicast devices.

NOTE:

The Residential Gateway only supports IGMPv1 and IGMPv2.
