Understanding Multicast Listener Registration Protocols:

Multicast listener registration protocols are used to manage multicast group memberships on a network.

They allow devices to join or leave multicast groups dynamically.

Protocols Supported by Junos:

MLD (Multicast Listener Discovery):

Used for IPv6 multicast group management. It is the IPv6 equivalent of IGMP.

MLD allows routers to discover multicast listeners on a network.

IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol):

Used for IPv4 multicast group management.

IGMP enables hosts to join and leave multicast groups and allows routers to manage multicast group memberships.

Verification and Configuration in Junos:

MLD and IGMP are supported on Juniper devices running the Junos operating system.

Configuration examples:

IGMP:

shell

Copy code

set protocols igmp interface ge-0/0/1.0

MLD:

shell

Copy code

set protocols mld interface ge-0/0/1.0

In a PIM-SM (Protocol Independent Multicast - Sparse Mode) network setup:

Before the formation of the rendezvous-point tree, a join message is sent from R1 to R3 (RP):

R1, being the router connected to the receiver, sends a PIM join message towards the RP (R3) to join the multicast group.

Before the formation of the rendezvous-point tree, an IGMP is sent from the Receiver to R1:

The receiver sends an IGMP membership report to its directly connected router (R1), indicating its interest in joining a multicast group.

The behavior of PIM-SM and the process of join messages and IGMP reports are covered in multicast networking sections of network configuration and design guides​​​​.

To ensure that each host is placed on a separate VLAN when using an unmanaged switch between the hosts and the EX Series switch:

Configure an input firewall filter on interface ge-0/0/3 to match the source MAC or IP address of the hosts to assign the VLANs:

By configuring an input firewall filter, you can match the source MAC or IP address of incoming traffic and assign the appropriate VLAN based on these criteria.

This method ensures that even though the switch between hosts and EX Series is unmanaged, VLAN assignments are still properly enforced at the EX Series switch.

Configuration Example:

set firewall family ethernet-switching filter VLAN-assignment term VLAN100 from source-mac-address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

set firewall family ethernet-switching filter VLAN-assignment term VLAN100 then vlan-assignment vlan 100

set firewall family ethernet-switching filter VLAN-assignment term VLAN200 from source-mac-address yy:yy:yy:yy:yy:yy

set firewall family ethernet-switching filter VLAN-assignment term VLAN200 then vlan-assignment vlan 200

set firewall family ethernet-switching filter VLAN-assignment term VLAN300 from source-mac-address zz:zz:zz:zz:zz:zz

set firewall family ethernet-switching filter VLAN-assignment term VLAN300 then vlan-assignment vlan 300

set interfaces ge-0/0/3 unit 0 family ethernet-switching filter input VLAN-assignment
