Terminology
Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) Common Groups
Verifies that multicast traffic travels in the reverse direction of 224.0.0.1 All hosts
unicast traffic, away from the tree root
224.0.0.2 All routers
Cisco Group Management Protocol (CGMP)
A proprietary protocol used by switches to obtain multicast 224.0.1.39 Cisco RP Announce
membership information for end hosts (deprecated) 224.0.1.40 Cisco RP Discovery
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)
Hosts send IGMP requests to local routers to join multicast groups Distribution Trees
Shared
IGMP Configuration A common set of links which carry all
IGMP Support Router(config-if)# ip igmp [version <#>] multicast traffic; statically configured
Source-Rooted
IGMP Snooping Switch(config)# ip igmp snooping
Provides the shortest paths from the
Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) source to receivers

Dense Mode IGMP


The initial tree encompasses all multicast routers; after a period of
time, routers without IGMP members prune back branches IGMPv1
Original IGMP specification
Sparse Mode
The tree is grown from a central rendezvous point out to the IGMPv2
multicast source and recipients Adds support for dynamic leave requests
and querier election to original IGMP
Sparse-Dense Mode
Allows a PIM-enabled interface to function in either sparse or dense IGMPv3
mode per group Adds multicast source filtering to v2
PIMv1 IGMP Snooping
Provides automatic RP discovery with Auto-RP (Cisco proprietary) A switch passively inspects IGMP
requests to determine which hosts
PIMv2 should receive multicast traffic
Automatic RP discovery is accomplished by the bootstrap router
(BSR) method (standard) IGMP Troubleshooting
