Group record has the following types:

{

IS_IN—The source filtering mode is Include. The report sender requests the multicast data from
only the sources defined in the specified multicast source list.

{

IS_EX—The source filtering mode is Exclude. The report sender requests the multicast data from

any sources but those defined in the specified multicast source list.

{

TO_IN—The filtering mode has changed from Exclude to Include.

{

TO_EX—The filtering mode has changed from Include to Exclude.

{

ALLOW—The Source Address fields in this group record contain a list of the additional sources

that the system wants to obtain data from, for packets sent to the specified multicast address. If
the change was to an Include source list, these sources are the addresses that were added to the

list. If the change was to an Exclude source list, these sources are the addresses that were

deleted from the list.

{

BLOCK—The Source Address fields in this group record contain a list of the sources that the
system no longer wants to obtain data from, for packets sent to the specified multicast address.
If the change was to an Include source list, these sources are the addresses that were deleted

from the list. If the change was to an Exclude source list, these sources are the addresses that

were added to the list.

IGMP SSM mapping

The IGMP SSM mapping feature enables you to configure static IGMP SSM mappings on the last hop

router to provide SSM support for receiver hosts that are running IGMPv1 or IGMPv2. The SSM model

assumes that the last hop router has already known the desired multicast sources when receivers join
multicast groups.

When a host that is running IGMPv3 joins a multicast group, it can explicitly specify one or more
multicast sources in its IGMPv3 report.

A host that is running IGMPv1 or IGMPv2, however, cannot specify multicast source addresses in its
report. In this case, you must configure the IGMP SSM mapping feature to translate the (*, G)

information in the IGMPv1 or IGMPv2 report into (G, INCLUDE, (S1, S2...)) information.
