IGMP proxy is enabled

Current IGMP version is 2

Multicast routing on this interface: enabled

Use the display igmp group command to view the IGMP group information. For example,
# Display the IGMP group information on Switch A.

[SwitchA] display igmp group

Total 1 IGMP Group(s).

Interface group report information of VPN-Instance: public net

The output shows that IGMP reports from the hosts are forwarded to Switch A through the proxy interface,
VLAN-interface 100 on Switch B.

Troubleshooting IGMP

No membership information on the receiver-side router

Symptom

When a host sends a report for joining multicast group G, no membership information of the multicast

group G exists on the router closest to that host.

Analysis

The correctness of networking and interface connections and whether the protocol layer of the

interface is up directly affect the generation of group membership information.

Multicast routing must be enabled on the router, and IGMP must be enabled on the interface
connecting to the host.

If the IGMP version on the router interface is lower than that on the host, the router will not be able
to recognize the IGMP report from the host.

If the igmp group-policy command has been configured on the interface, the interface cannot
receive report messages that fail to pass filtering.

Solution

1.

Check that the networking, interface connection, and IP address configuration are correct. Check

the interface information with the display igmp interface command. If no information is output, the

interface is in an abnormal state. This is usually because you have configured the shutdown
command on the interface, the interface is not properly connected, or the IP address configuration

is not correct.

2.

Check that multicast routing is enabled. Use the display current-configuration command to check
whether the multicast routing-enable command has been executed. If not, carry out the multicast

routing-enable command in system view to enable IP multicast routing. In addition, check that

IGMP is enabled on the corresponding interfaces.
