Non-group members may send UDP datagram’s to the host group. 

Multicasting is useful when the same data needs to be sent to more than one device. For 

instance, if one device is responsible for acquiring data that many other devices need, 

then multicasting is a natural fit. Note that using multicasting as opposed to sending the 

same data to individual devices uses less network bandwidth. The multicast feature also 

enables you to receive multicast video streams from multicast servers. 

The IGMP Proxy page allows you to enable multicast on available WAN and LAN 

connections. You can configure the WAN or LAN interface as one of the following: 

 

Upstream The interface that IGMP requests from hosts are sent to the multicast 

router. 

 

Downstream The interface data from the multicast router are sent to hosts in the 

multicast group database. 

 

Ignore No IGMP request nor data multicast are forwarded. 

You can perform one of the two options: 

1.  Configure one or more WAN interface as the upstream interface. 

2.  Configure one or more LAN interface as the upstream interface. 

1. Select Advanced. 

2. Select Application > IGMP Proxy. 

3.  Configure the following interfaces:
