Multicast routers send host query messages to determine the interfaces

that are connected to downstream hosts requesting a specific multicast

service. Only the designated multicast router for a subnet sends host

query messages, which are addressed to the multicast address

224.0.0.1, and uses a time-to-live (TTL) value of 1.

For IGMP Version 1, the designated router is elected according to the

multicast routing protocol that runs on the LAN. But for IGMP Version 2

and 3, the designated querier is the lowest IP-addressed multicast

router on the subnet.
