Configuring via Web-based Interface
IGMP/MLD
On the
Advanced / IGMP/MLD
page, you can allow the router to use IGMP and MLD and
specify needed settings.
IGMP and MLD are used for managing multicast traffic (transferring data to a group of
destinations) in IPv4 and IPv6 networks correspondingly. These protocols allow using network
resources for some applications, e.g., for streaming video, more efficiently.
