Configuring Basic Igmp Functions - HP A8800 Configuration Manual

Task
Configuring IGMP SSM
mapping
Configuring IGMP proxying
For the configuration tasks in this section:
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 on an interface in interface view, the global configuration in IGMP
•
view applies to that interface. If a feature is configured in both IGMP view and interface view, the
configuration in interface view will be given priority.

Configuring basic IGMP functions

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 rule for multicast group filtering.
•
Determine the maximum number of multicast groups that an interface can join.
•
Enabling IGMP
When you enable IGMP, follow these guidelines:
To configure IGMP, you must enable IGMP on the interface on which the multicast group
•
memberships will be established and maintained.
Receiver hosts can join multicast groups only if IGMP is enabled on the receiver-side DRs. For more
•
information about DRs, see
• IGMP snooping is not allowed in a VLAN after IGMP is enabled on the virtual interface of that
VLAN, and vice versa.
Enabling IGMP for the public network
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable IP multicast routing.
3. Enter interface view.
