Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)
IGMP allows for managing a single upstream interface and multiple
downstream interfaces of the IGMP/MLD (Multicast Listener
Discovery)-based forwarding. This function enables the system
to send IGMP host messages on behalf of hosts that the system
discovers through standard IGMP interfaces. Also, IGMP snooping
allows an Ethernet switch to "listen in" on the IGMP conversation
between hosts and routers, while IGMP querier will send out
periodic IGMP queries.
To enable this function:
1. Choose the IGMP interfaces by clicking on the checkboxes
on the screen.
2. Click Apply Apply to save changes.
8.2f/ IPv4 aDDRESS DISTRIBUTION
You can easily add computers confgured as DHCP clients to the
network. The DHCP server provides a mechanism for allocating IP
addresses to these hosts and for delivering network confguration
parameters to the hosts.
For example, a client (host) sends a broadcast message on the
network requesting an IP address for itself. The DHCP server
then checks its list of available addresses and leases a local IP
address to the host for a specifc period of time and simultaneously
designates this IP address as taken. At this point, the host is
confgured with an IP address for the duration of the lease.
