IGMPv3 Example
(future) |
||
In this example,
host “H1” has joined group 224.1.1.1 but only wishes to receive traffic from
Source 1.1.1.1. Using an as yet
unspecified IGMPv3 mechanism, the host can inform the designated router,
“R3”, that it is only interested in multicast traffic from Source 1.1.1.1 for
Group 224.1.1.1. Router “R3” could
then potentially “prune” this specific (S,G) traffic source. |
