Miscellaneous
On the
Advanced / Miscellaneous
page, you can enable IGMP, SIP, RTSP, and the PPPoE pass
through function for the router.
IGMP is used for managing multicast traffic (transferring data to a group of destinations). This
protocol allows using network resources for some applications, e.g., for streaming video, more
efficiently.
SIP is used for creating, modifying, and terminating communication sessions. This protocol allows
telephone calls via the Internet.
RTSP is used for real-time streaming multimedia data delivery. This protocol allows some
applications to receive streaming audio/video from the Internet.
The PPPoE pass through function allows PPPoE clients of computers from your LAN to connect to
the Internet through PPPoE connections of the router.
