Internet Group Management Protocol Version 3 / Multicast Listener Discovery Version 2 and Multicast Routing Protocol Interaction
RFC 5186, “Internet Group Management Protocol Version 3 / Multicast Listener Discovery Version 2 and Multicast Routing Protocol Interaction”, is an Informational document published in May 2008 by B. Haberman, J. Martin. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The definitions of the Internet Group Management Protocol Version 3 (IGMPv3) and Multicast Listener Discovery Version 2 (MLDv2) require new behavior within the multicast routing protocols. The additional source information contained in IGMPv3 and MLDv2 messages necessitates that multicast routing protocols manage and utilize the information. This document describes how multicast routing protocols will interact with these source-filtering group management protocols. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
