IP Multicast Routing Protocol
The functions supporting IP multicasting are found in
L3 Features >
IP Multicast Routing Protocol
. IGMP,
DVMRP, and PIM-DM/SM/SM-DM/SSM can be enabled or disabled on the Switch without changing the individual
protocol’s configuration by using the DGS-3620 Web Management Tool.
IGMP
Computers and network devices that want to receive multicast transmissions need to inform nearby routers that
they will become members of a multicast group. The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is used to
communicate this information. IGMP is also used to periodically check the multicast group for members that are no
longer active.
IGMP
In the case where there is more than one multicast router on a subnetwork, one router is elected as the ‘querier’.
This router then keeps track of the membership of the multicast groups that have active members. The information
received from IGMP is then used to determine if multicast packets should be forwarded to a given subnetwork or
not. The router can check, using IGMP, to see if there is at least one member of a multicast group on a given
subnetwork. If there are no members on a subnetwork, packets will not be forwarded to that subnetwork.
Multicast groups allow members to join or leave at any time. IGMP provides the method for members and multicast
routers to communicate when joining or leaving a multicast group.
IGMP Versions 1 and 2
IGMP version 1 is defined in RFC 1112. It has a fixed packet size and no optional data.
The format of an IGMP packet is shown below:
