IGMP Proxy
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) proxy is used for multicast routing. IGMP proxy enables the
ZyWALL/USG to issue IGMP host messages on behalf of hosts that the ZyWALL/USG discovered on its IGMP-
enabled interfaces. The ZyWALL/USG acts as a proxy for its hosts. Refer to the following figure.
• DS: Downstream traffic
• US: Upstream traffic
•R: Router
• MS: Multicast Server
• Enable IGMP Upstream (US) on the ZyWALL/USG interface that connects to a router (R) running
IGMP that is closer to the multicast server (MS).
• Enable IGMP Downstream on the ZyWALL/USG interface which connects to the multicast hosts.
