RFC 4605: Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)/Multicast Listener Discovery
(MLD)-Based Multicast Forwarding ("IGMP/MLD Proxying")

IGMP Configuration Task List

Complete these tasks to configure IGMP:
Configuring Basic Functions
of IGMP
Adjusting IGMP
Performance
Configuring IGMP SSM
Mapping
Configuring IGMP Proxying
Configurations performed in IGMP view are effective on all interfaces, while configurations
performed in interface view are effective on the current interface only.
If a feature is not configured for an interface in interface view, the global configuration performed in
IGMP view will apply to that interface. If a feature is configured in both IGMP view and interface
view, the configuration performed in interface view will be given priority.
