Multicast User Control Policy Configuration

Only the S3100-EI series support multicast user control policy configuration.

IPv4 Multicast User Control Policy Configuration

Configuring IPv4 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 802.1x authentication, 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.

z

Upon receiving an IGMP report from a host, the access switch checks the multicast group address

and multicast source address carried in the report against 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.

z

Upon 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.
