IP Multicast Support |
The Windows 2000 router can provide full multicast capabilities in a single router intranet. In this configuration, all interfaces are added to the IGMP routing protocol and each interface is configured for IGMP router mode. Any host on any subnet can both send and receive multicast traffic from any other host. All multicast traffic is forwarded to subnets where there are host members.
The single router intranet configuration is shown in Figure 4.6.
