Controlling Access to Multicast Groups

To control the multicast groups that hosts on the ASA interface can join, perform the following steps:

Detailed Steps

Limiting the Number of IGMP States on an Interface

You can limit the number of IGMP states resulting from IGMP membership reports on a per-interface
basis. Membership reports exceeding the configured limits are not entered in the IGMP cache, and traffic
for the excess membership reports is not forwarded.

To limit the number of IGMP states on an interface, enter the following command:

Command

Purpose

igmp static-group

Example:

hostname(config-if)# igmp static-group

group-address

Configures the ASA statically to join a multicast group on an interface.

The group-address

argument

is the IP address of the group.

Command

Purpose

Step 1

Do one of the following to create a standard or extended access list:

access-list

name standard [permit | deny]

ip_addr mask

Example:

hostname(config)# access-list acl1

standard permit 192.52.662.25

Creates a standard access list for the multicast traffic.

You can create more than one entry for a single access list. You
can use extended or standard access lists.

The ip_addr mask argument is the IP address of the multicast
group being permitted or denied.

access-list

name extended [permit | deny]

protocol src_ip_addr src_mask dst_ip_addr

dst_mask

Example:

hostname(config)# access-list acl2

extended permit protocol src_ip_addr

src_mask dst_ip_addr dst_mask

Creates an extended access list.

The dst_ip_addr argument is the IP address of the multicast group
being permitted or denied.

Step 2

igmp access-group

acl

Example:

hostname(config-if)# igmp access-group acl

Applies the access list to an interface.

The acl argument is the name of a standard or extended IP access
list.
