TO_IN—The filtering mode has changed from Exclude to Include.

TO_EX—The filtering mode has changed from Include to Exclude.

ALLOW—The Source Address fields in this group record contain a list of the additional sources
from which the system wants to obtain data for packets sent to the specified multicast address.

If the change was to an Include source list, these sources are the addresses that were added to
the list. If the change was to an Exclude source list, these sources are the addresses that were

deleted from the list.

{

BLOCK—The Source Address fields in this group record contain a list of the sources from which
the system no longer wants to obtain data for packets sent to the specified multicast address. If

the change was to an Include source list, these sources are the addresses that were deleted from
the list. If the change was to an Exclude source list, these sources are the addresses that were

added to the list.

IGMP support for VPNs

IGMP maintains group memberships on a per-interface base. After receiving an IGMP message on an

interface, IGMP processes the packet within the VPN to which the interface belongs. IGMP only

communicates with other multicast protocols within the same VPN instance.
