Summary
IGMPproxy is a simple dynamic Multicast Routing Daemon using only IGMP signalling (Internet Group Management Protocol). IGMP proxy enables the device to issue IGMP host messages on behalf of hosts that the device discovered through standard IGMP interfaces. The device acts as a proxy for its hosts.
Routing is done by defining an "upstream" interface on which the daemon act as a normal Multicast client, and one or more "downstream" interfaces that serves clients on the destination networks.
This chapter of the user manual provides an overview of the IGMP Proxy page in {{{name}}} devices.
Note: IGMP Proxy is additional software that can be installed from the Services → [[{{{name}}} Package Manager|Package Manager]] page.
If you're having trouble finding this page or some of the parameters described here on your device's WebUI, you should turn on "Advanced WebUI" mode. You can do that by clicking the "Advanced" button, located at the top of the WebUI.
