Hi Sebastian Following is the issue I am facing while using mcproxy. I have configured upstream interface as “eth0” and downstream interface as “eth2.1” as seen below.
root@router0D0E0F:~# cat /etc/mcproxy.conf protocol IGMPv3; pinstance myproxy:"eth0" ==> "eth2.1" ; Traffic is sent from eth0 interface and received on eth2.1 interface as expected. Issue: Now, I changed upstream interface to eth2.1 and downstream to eth0 like below. root@router0D0E0F:~# cat /etc/mcproxy.conf protocol IGMPv3; pinstance myproxy:"eth2.1" ==> "eth0" ; In this case, if Traffic is still sent from eth0 interface, it is received on eth2.1 interface which should not be case. I think streaming should happen when traffic is sent from eth2.1 and received on eth0 ONLY. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong. Please provide your inputs on this behavior.

Hi Siva, yes, Mcproxy can interoperate with the older version IGMPv2. I hope this helps.

When I use protocol as IGMPv3, and connect two downstream interfaces ,(one host using IGMPv2 and the other IGMPv3), root@OpenWrt:~# cat /etc/mcproxy.conf protocol IGMPv3; pinstance myproxy: “eth0” ==> “eth2.1” “eth2.2”; Here host connected to eth2.1 sends IGMPv2 packets, host connect to eth2.2 sends IGMPV3 packets. Does mcproxy forward to both the hosts ? Please help me in this issue.

Hi Siva, quotes around eth2.1 should solve the problem. Like this: protocol IGMPv3; pinstance myproxy: eth0 ==> "eth2.1"; Regards Sebastian On Thursday, March 30, 2017 at 10:09:38 AM UTC+2, Siva Prasad Meduri wrote: Hi Sebastian Thanks a lot for your valuable reply . I have configured mcproxy in the following way and run the mcproxy binary as shown below : root@OpenWrt:~# cat /etc/mcproxy.conf protocol IGMPv3; pinstance myproxy: eth0 ==> eth2.1; root@OpenWrt:~# /usr/local/bin/mcproxy -dsvv -f /etc/mcproxy.conf ERROR: failed to parse line 2 unknown token TT_DOT with value in this context failed to parse config file But I get the above error marked in yellow, when I configure eth0 as upstream and eth2.1 as downstream interfaces. I think it’s a parsing error in mcproxy.conf but the syntax I followed seems correct. Could you please help me resolve this issue.

Hello Siva, here is an example of how to configure Mcproxy: https://github.com/mcproxy/mcproxy/blob/master/mcproxy/mcproxy.conf In detail you have to set the group management protocol the proxy shall use ("IGMPv3" for IPv4 or "MLDv2" for IPv6) and you have to configure upstream interface and downstream interfaces. Your config file could like like this: protocol IGMPv3; pinstance myProxy: eth0 ==> eth1 eth2; Regards Sebastian On Thursday, March 2, 2017 at 9:41:52 AM UTC+1, Siva Prasad Meduri wrote: Hi Sebastian I am using mcproxy for openwrt routers .
