Series units.
Command History
Release 7.1 Command was introduced.
Functional Notes
This command is used in IP multicast stub applications in conjunction with the ip mcast-stub
helper-address and ip mcast-stub downstream commands. When enabled, the interface becomes a
candidate to be a helper forwarding interface. If chosen as the best path toward the helper address by the
router's unicast route table, the IGMP host function is dynamically enabled and the interface becomes the
active upstream interface, enabling the router to perform as an IGMP proxy. Though multiple interfaces
may be candidates, no more than one interface will actively serve as the helper forwarding interface.
Usage Examples
The following example enables multicast forwarding on the interface:
(config)#interface loopback 1
(config-loop 1)#ip mcast-stub upstream
