IGMP Filtering and Throttling

IGMP filtering enables you to assign a profile to a switch port that

specifies multicast groups that are permitted or denied on the port. An

IGMP filter profile can contain one or more, or a range of multicast

addresses; but only one profile can be assigned to a port. When

enabled, IGMP join reports received on the port are checked against the

filter profile. If a requested multicast group is permitted, the IGMP join

report is forwarded as normal. If a requested multicast group is denied,

the IGMP join report is dropped.

IGMP filtering and throttling only applies to dynamically learned

multicast groups, it does not apply to statically configured groups.

The IGMP filtering feature operates in the same manner when MVR is

used to forward multicast traffic.

A profile defines the multicast groups that a subscriber is permitted or

denied to join. The same profile can be applied to many interfaces, but only

one profile can be assigned to one interface. Each profile has only one

access mode; either permit or deny.
