SG300 IGMP proxy support

[Joachim Buechse]

Good day,

I've read in the release notes for Release 1.4.0.88 under "New Features and Modifications" that the software now supports "Multicast Routing based on IGMP/MLD Proxy".

"Multicast Routing based on IGMP/MLD Proxy – Allows simple replication of multicast traffic without need to support complicated multicast routing protocols such as Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) or Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP). Including support for IGMP/MLD router on downstream interfaces (SG500X and SG500XG product lines)"

Well - that would be fantastic. Only problem, I can't figure out where or how to enable or configure it. Any help would be appreciated. I'm trying to set this up on an SG300-10MP. The interesting question is, how to read the restriction in brackets. What is only available on SG500X? The "support for IGMP/MLD router on downstream interfaces" or the whole IGMP proxy feature?

Best regards,

Joachim

Got confirmation from support that the IGMP proxy feature as a whole is only supported on the "top of the line" SG500X switches.

That is really sad given that some other producers have it even on the smallest models.
