Internet Group Management Protocol - IGMP
Internet group management protocol is the commands, processes, and procedures that are used to send control messages and coordinate the multicasting (simultaneous distribution) of data through an Internet protocol network. IGMP is used to establish membership into a multicast group that is operating within a network. Using IGMP, users can inform routers within the network that they would like to receive media and control messages from a specific multicast group. IGMP is defined in RFC 1112 and 2236. Multicast IGMP
This figure shows how Internet group management protocol is used to setup and manage multicast communication sessions to a local multicast host. This example shows that an IGMP manager sends a query request to group members to determine if they are interested (or still interested) in participating in a multicast session. Group members send reports to identify that they are interested in participating in a multicast session. The multicast routers use the report messages to build their multicast router tables.
