NOTE:
In IGMP view, the configuration is effective on all interfaces. In interface view, the configuration is
effective on only the current interface.
If a feature is not configured for an interface in interface view, the global configuration performed in
IGMP view applies to that interface. If a feature is configured in both IGMP view and interface view,
the configuration performed in interface view has priority.

Configuring basic functions of IGMP

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure the basic functions of IGMP, complete the following tasks:
Configure any unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are interoperable at the
•
network layer
Configure PIM-DM or PIM-SM
•
Determine the IGMP version
•
Determine the multicast group and multicast source addresses for static group member
•
configuration
Determine the ACL rules for multicast group filtering
•
Determine the maximum number of multicast groups that an interface can join
•

Enabling IGMP

To configure IGMP, you must enable IGMP on the interface on which the multicast group memberships
will be established and maintained.
