IGMP
Network
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is a protocol used for managing members of IP
multicast groups. The Access Point listens to IGMP network traffic and forwards the IGMP multicast
packets to radios on which the interested hosts are connected. On the wired side of the network,
the Access Point floods all the wired interfaces. This feature reduces unnecessary flooding of
multicast traffic in the network
To view a network’s IGMP configuration:
1. Select the Statistics menu from the Web UI.
2. Select System from the navigation pane (on the left-hand side of the screen). Expand a RF
Domain, select a controller or service platform, and select one of its connected Access Points.
3. Select Network and expand the menu to reveal its sub menu items.
4. Select IGMP.
