Figure 33. IGMP Version 3–Capable Multicast Routers Address Structure
Joining and Filtering Groups and Sources
The following illustration shows how multicast routers maintain the group and source information from
unsolicited reports.
1. The first unsolicited report from the host indicates that it wants to receive traffic for group 224.1.1.1.
2. The host's second report indicates that it is only interested in traffic from group 224.1.1.1, source
10.11.1.1. Include messages prevents traffic from all other sources in the group from reaching the
subnet. Before recording this request, the querier sends a group-and-source query to verify that
there are no hosts interested in any other sources. The multicast router must satisfy all hosts if they
have conflicting requests. For example, if another host on the subnet is interested in traffic from
10.11.1.3, the router cannot record the include request. There are no other interested hosts, so the
request is recorded. At this point, the multicast routing protocol prunes the tree to all but the
specified sources.
3. The host's third message indicates that it is only interested in traffic from sources 10.11.1.1 and
10.11.1.2. Because this request again prevents all other sources from reaching the subnet, the router
sends another group-and-source query so that it can satisfy all other hosts. There are no other
interested hosts so the request is recorded.
