Closing of the MAGMA mailing list

All,
      The IESG has recently re-chartered the PIM working group.  In 
doing so, they have added responsibility for handling work related to 
IGMP and MLD.  To avoid any confusion, I have suggested that the magma 
mailing list be closed and all discussion of IGMP/MLD issues carried out 
on the PIM mailing list.  My plan is to close this mailing list in the 
next week or so.

      Information on subscribing to the PIM mailing list is available at 
https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/pim.

Regards,
Brian

Regarding IGMPProxy stream receiving time gap after join

Regarding IGMPProxy :---

                                           Upstream
            Downstream
H1 -------------------------------------  eth0 IGMPProxy eth2
-------------------------------------- H2
multicastsend
                                                    multicastrecv

UDP -->
                                                      <---- JOIN

With the above setup.

Started pumping UDP stream  from H1 to group 239.0.0.0/5000.

After sending the IGMP JOIN on H2 side (to Grp 239.0.0.0), UDP stream
started receiving properly to the port 5000.

But it is observed that, udp stream is not recieved immediately to H2,
it is taking 2 to 3 seconds some times, it is taking 4 to 6 seconds
also.

I hope that IGMPProxy implementation will add the Route in MFC,
whenver it receives CACHE_MISS event and matches the JOIN database.

In IGMP General queries sent, "Max Response Time" field is set to 1 second.

Any better approach to avoid  delayed stream

Fw: [multimob] draft-ietf-multimob-igmp-mld-tuning-03

Hello folks,

Multimob WG started WGLC for the following draft discussing IGMP/MLD
timer or value tuning for wireless network or mobile communication.

We'd appreciate hearing your comments on "multimob ML", not magma ML.
(Just teling "support" on multimob ML is also fine. :)

Learning dynamic mrouter when both IGMP and snooping are enabled

Hi,

If we have enabled both IGMP and IGMP snooping, and we receive query from a neighbor, should we always create the dynamic mrouter(since snooping is enabled).

Thanks,
Sudhanshu

Sending query on a new member of VE

Hi,

If we have IGMP enabled on VE(virtual ethernet) with some member ports and a new member port joins the VE, is it necessary to send query on that port immediately, or we can send query on expiry of query interval timer.
What are the consequences of delaying the "send query message" on the newly joining port.

Thanks,
Sudhanshu

Forwarding of query to mrouter ports of other vlans.

Hi,
 
   I have one question regarding IGMP Snooping. Usually we forward query to mrouter ports of the receiving vlan. Can there be a scenario where I need to forward the query to mrouter ports of other vlans? If yes then what is the case?
 
Thanks,

Querier transition based on Group Specific Query?

Hi,
 
   In the querier transition state machine, RFC 2236 only mentions 'Query' and does not specify GQ or GSQ. Can a querier transition take place based on GSQ? Or is it okay to for a querier to ignore GSQ? Can anyone please help me with this?

Destination address in v2 leave message

Hi,
 
    Can anyone please tell me the disadvantage of using queriers address as destination address in v2 leave message? Is there any advantage of sending it to 224.0.0.2? Non-querier never processes leave message anyway.

Cross-Vlan IGMP query-forwarding.

Hello, all,

IGMP is not responsible for routing across VLANs. It is actually designed to keep things local to its own
VLAN-- to reduce flooding, rather than create it.

Indranil's diagram is shown below:

>                           VLANA(10.x.x.x)         VLANB(20.x.x.x)
>
> RTR--------------------------sw-------------------------HOST.

If you want to route IGMP Queries from one VLAN to IGMP hosts on another, then you use a multicast routing
protocol such as PIM.

IGMP alone is not expected to perform this function.

Thank you and best regards,
  Karen Kimball

Hi Suresh,

RTR-------------------------------sw------------------------------HOST.

All the queries received on VLANA will be forwared to VLANB. When mcast data
is received on vlanA those will also be forwarded on vlanB after some header
rewrite. Please let me know if this answers your question.
Thanks,

Hi Bharat,

Hi Bharat,

The security consideration addresses the processing of a report from a different subnet on the router. My
question pertains to the processing of a Query from a different subnet on the host.

Hi Kunal,

        I think to keep the security tight, it is better to not respond to queries received from a source address
which does not fall on a subnet on that interface. Please note that this should be done only broadcast
interfaces. It may not work on point-to-point links.

        If you look at the security consideration in RFC 2236, it is mentioned that for reports, the above check
should be done.

Hi all,

Can an IGMPv2 host respond to a general query originated from a subnet other then its own?? RFC 2236 states:

""query received" occurs when the host receives either a valid
     General Membership Query message, or a valid Group-Specific
     Membership Query message.  To be valid, the Query message must be
     at least 8 octets long, and have a correct IGMP checksum.  The
     group address in the IGMP header must either be zero (a General
     Query) or a valid multicast group address (a Group-Specific Query)"

There is no requirement for the source address to be on the same subnet as the host.

Thanks,
Kunal

Kunal,

        What I am suggesting is that though RFC does not explicitly suggest it, it might be better to do this for
broadcast interfaces.

        But yes, RFC does not suggest anything on this so a host can process a query message with a source address from
any other subnet as well.
