Command Usage
◆
If IGMP authentication is enabled on an interface, and a join report is received
on the interface, the switch will send an access request to the RADIUS server to
perform authentication.
◆
Only when the RADIUS server responds with an authentication success
message will the switch learn the group report. Once the group is learned, the
switch will not send an access request to the RADIUS server when receiving the
same report again within a one (1) day period.
◆
If the RADIUS server responds that authentication failed or the timer expires,
the report will be dropped and the group will not be learned. The entry (host
MAC, port number, VLAN ID, and group IP) will be put in the “authentication
failed list”.
◆
The “authentication failed list” is valid for the period of the interval defined by
the command
ip igmp snooping vlan query-interval . When receiving the same
report during this interval, the switch will not send the access request to the
RADIUS server.
◆
If the interface leaves the group and subsequently rejoins the same group, the
join report needs to again be authenticated.
◆
When receiving an IGMP v3 report message, the switch will send the access
request to the RADIUS server only when the record type is either IS_EX or
TO_EX, and the source list is empty. Other types of packets will not initiate
RADIUS authentication.
IS_EX (MODE_IS_EXCLUDE) - Indicates that the interface’s filter mode is
EXCLUDE for the specified multicast address. The Source Address fields in this
Group Record contain the interface's source list for the specified multicast
address, if not empty.
TO_EX (CHANGE_TO_EXCLUDE_MODE) - Indicates that the interface has
changed to EXCLUDE filter mode for the specified multicast address. The
Source Address fields in this Group Record contain the interface's new source
list for the specified multicast address, if not empty.
◆
When a report is received for the first time and is being authenticated, whether
authentication succeeds or fails, the report will still be sent to the multicast-
router port.
◆
The following table shows the RADIUS server Attribute Value Pairs used for
authentication:

Attribute Name AVP Type Entry
USER_NAME 1 User MAC address
USER_PASSWORD 2 User MAC address
NAS_IP_ADDRESS 4 Switch IP address
