IGMP snooping proxying configuration example (for VLANs)

As shown in Figure 17, Router A runs IGMPv2 and acts as the IGMP querier. Switch A runs IGMPv2 snooping. Configure IGMP snooping proxying so that Switch A can perform the following actions:

• Forward IGMP report and leave messages to Router A.

• Respond to IGMP queries sent by Router A and forward the queries to downstream hosts.

1. Assign an IP address and subnet mask to each interface, as shown in Figure 17. (Details not shown.)

2. Configure Router A:

   # Enable IP multicast routing.

   <RouterA> system-view
   [RouterA] multicast routing
   [RouterA-mrib] quit
   

   # Enable IGMP and PIM-DM on Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

   [RouterA] interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/1
   [RouterA-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] igmp enable
   [RouterA-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] pim dm
   [RouterA-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit
   

   # Enable PIM-DM on Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/2.

   [RouterA] interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/2
   [RouterA-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] pim dm
   [RouterA-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] quit
   

3. Configure Switch A:

   # Enable the IGMP snooping feature.

   <SwitchA> system-view
   [SwitchA] igmp-snooping
   [SwitchA-igmp-snooping] quit
   

   # Create VLAN 100, and assign Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 through Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/4 to the VLAN.

   [SwitchA] vlan 100
   [SwitchA-vlan100] port ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/1 to ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/4
   

   # Enable IGMP snooping and IGMP snooping proxying for VLAN 100.

   [SwitchA-vlan100] igmp-snooping enable
   [SwitchA-vlan100] igmp-snooping proxy enable
   [SwitchA-vlan100] quit
   

# Send an IGMP report to join multicast group 224.1.1.1 from Host A and Host B. (Details not shown.)

# Display information about dynamic IGMP snooping group entries on Switch A.

[SwitchA] display igmp-snooping group
 Total 1 entries.

VLAN 100: Total 1 entries.
  (0.0.0.0, 224.1.1.1)
    Host ports (2 in total):
      XGE1/0/3                                     (00:04:00)
      XGE1/0/4                                     (00:04:04)

The output shows that Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1 and Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1 are member ports of multicast group 224.1.1.1. Both Host A and Host B will receive multicast data for the group

# Display information about IGMP group entries on Router A.

[RouterA] display igmp group

# Send an IGMP leave message to leave multicast group (224.1.1.1) from Host A. (Details not shown.)

VLAN 100: Total 1 entries.

    Host ports (1 in total):
      XGE1/0/3                                     ( 00:01:23 )

The output shows that Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/4 (connected to Host A) has been deleted from the entry of multicast group (224.1.1.1).
