that using multicasting as opposed to sending the same data to individual devices uses less network
bandwidth. The multicast feature also enables you to receive multicast video streams from multicast servers.
The IGMP Proxy page allows you to enable multicast on available WAN and LAN connections. You can
configure the WAN or LAN interface as one of the following:
•
Upstream
The interface that IGMP requests from hosts are sent to the multicast router.
•
Downstream
The interface data from the multicast router are sent to hosts in the multicast group
database.
•
Ignore
No IGMP request nor data multicast is being forwarded.
You can perform one of the two options:
•
Configure one or more WAN interface as the upstream interface.
•
Configure one or more LAN interface as the upstream interface.

The TR-068 WAN Access page enables you to give temporary permission to someone (such as technical
support staff) to be able to access your router from the WAN side. From the moment the account is
enabled, the user is expected to log in within 20 minutes; otherwise, the account expires. Once the user has
logged in, if the session remains inactive for more than 20 minutes, the user will be logged out and the
account expires.
