Managing Intelligent Multicasting
LGMP and CGMP are similar protocols. Both protocols have a server
implementation that runs on a switch that implements the Learning
Process, and both protocols have a client implementation which
runs on switches that do not have local IP interfaces on all involved
VLANs. For the Avaya Multiservice switch, only the client
implementation of CGMP is available in case the switch is connected
to a Cisco router. This implementation is called CGMP Snooping.
* Note: IGMP Snooping must be enabled to learn the sessions
that the LGMP server will disseminate. An LGMP server
is active only for VLANs that have an IGMP interface
enabled.
