"Propagating" doesn't quite make sense for IGMP, unless you were bridging networks. (And Solaris doesn't currently support bridging.) IGMP is intentionally a link-local protocol used to communicate between group members. Routing between links is a separate matter. Solaris doesn't include the multicast routing daemons that would listen to the information gathered by IGMP messages (section 6 of RFC 3376) and perform multicast routing functions. It does not include DVMRP, PIM, or other such protocols. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
