Actions
When receiving a report for a multicast group, the proxy looks up the
multicast forwarding table for the entry for the multicast group. If the
forwarding entry is found with the receiving port contained as a
dynamic member port in the outgoing port list, the proxy resets the
aging timer for the entry. If the forwarding entry is found but the
outgoing port list does not include the receiving port, the proxy adds
the port to the outgoing port list as a dynamic member port and starts
an aging timer for it. If no forwarding entry is found, the proxy
creates the entry, adds the receiving port to the outgoing port list as a
dynamic member port and starts an aging timer for the port. Then, it
sends a report to the group out all router ports.
In response to an IGMP leave message for a multicast group, the
proxy sends a group-specific query out the receiving port. After
making sure that no member port is contained in the forwarding entry
for the multicast group, the proxy sends a leave message to the group
out all router ports.
