IGMP Proxy per VLAN or
instance
Introduced in version 02.6.00 of the Multi-Service
IronWare software, multicast traffic can be reduced
by configuring an BigIron RX switch to issue IGMP
host messages on behalf of hosts that the
configured router discovers through standard PIM
interfaces. The router is then able to act as a proxy
for the discovered hosts and perform IGMP tasks
upstream of the discovered hosts. Where there are
multiple IGMP hosts downstream, this removes the
need to send multiple messages.
