(Optional) Configuring IGMP

If IGMP is enabled on a multicast device's interface connecting to a user network segment, multicast group members on the local network can be managed. According to the service plan, you can enable IGMP on a VPN site's CE connected to a receiver PE or on the receiver PE. Perform this task for the latter case.
