28.11 IGMP Proxy Configuration

28.11.1 Introduction to IGMP Proxy

IGMP/MLD proxy which is introduced in rfc4605, is a simplified multicast protocol running at

edge boxes. The edge boxes which runs the IGMP/MLD proxy protocol, does not need to run

complicated multicast routing protocols such as PIM/DVMRP. However they work with

multicast protocol enabled network through IGMP/MLD proxy. They can simplify the

implementation of multicasting on edge devices.

The IGMP/MLD proxy works between the multicast router and the client, it works as both the

multicast host and router. Upstream and downstream ports should be specified in the

IGMP/MLD proxy configuration. The host protocol runs at upstream ports, while the router

protocol runs at downstream ports. The switch collects the join and leave messages received

from downstream ports and forward them to the multicast router through upstream ports.

The IGMP proxy configuration is exclusive with PIM and DVMRP configuration.

28.11.2 IGMP Proxy Configuration Task List

different interfaces

Command

Explanation

Interface Configuration Mode

ip igmp proxy upstream

no ip igmp proxy upstream

Enable IGMP Proxy upstream function. The “no ip

igmp proxy upstream

” disables this function.

ip igmp proxy downstream
