Usage Guidelines

By default, a maximum number of 65536 IGMP entries can be created on the entire FW.

When the number of IGMP entries reaches the limit, the system does not create any more. To enable the FW to allow new join requests, you can either delete useless entries or modify the limit. Alternatively, you can enable static addition on a multicast group or source/group.

Each of the following entries is counted as one IGMP entry:
  • (*, G) entry

  • (S, G) entry

  • (*, G) entry to which Source-Specific Multicast (SSM)-Mapping is applied

Example

# Set the maximum number of IGMP entries that can be created on the FW to 1024.
