Configuring a multicast user control policy

Multicast user control policies are configured on access switches to allow only authorized users to receive
requested multicast traffic flows. This helps restrict users from ordering certain multicast-on-demand

programs.
In practice, a device first needs to perform authentication (802.1X authentication, for example) on

connected hosts through a RADIUS server. Then, the device uses the configured multicast user control

policy to perform multicast access control on authenticated users as follows:

After receiving an IGMP report from a host, the access switch matches the multicast group address
and multicast source address carried in the report with the configured policies. If a match is found,

the host is allowed to join the multicast group. Otherwise, the join report is dropped by the access
switch.

After receiving an IGMP leave message from a host, the access switch matches the multicast group
and source addresses with the policies. If a match is found, the host is allowed to leave the group.

Otherwise, the leave message is dropped by the access switch.
