Mankamana,
More of the same…

RFC 4541<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4541> suggest that 
IGMP-snooping switches may use 0.0.0.0 AS THE Source IP address in queries they 
generate and in “summary reports” they send in response to “real” queriers.

Is this applicable also to 9251-compliant EVPN?

I am asking because the only reference to 4541 deals with a different aspect of 
IGMP snooping.

Regards,
Sasha

Mankamana,
Apologies for my long silence.

Regarding a specific case of interest: I wonder if the Proxy Querier is allowed 
sending queries with IPv4 address of 0.0.0.0.

Regards, and lots of thanks in advance,
Sasha

Hi Shasha

Proxy querier behavior expects implementation to generate IGMP join locally on 
LAN after getting SMET joins. IP address depends on implementation. It can pick 
IP address from IRB or internal querier configuration.

Is there any specific case that has issue?

Hi all,
Yet another question related to RFC 9251.

Section 4.2 of RFC 
9251<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9251#section-4.2> says:


As mentioned in the previous sections, each PE MUST have proxy querier 
functionality for the following reasons:
1.      to enable the collection of EVPN PEs providing Layer 2 Virtual Private 
Network (L2VPN) service to act as a distributed multicast router with an 
anycast IP address for all attached hosts in that subnet
2.      to enable suppression of IGMP Membership Reports and Membership Queries 
over MPLS/IP core

I wonder whether Source IP address of the queries mentioned above is presumed 
to be an IP address of an anycast EVPN IRB as defined in RFC 9135,  and, if 
yes, is this EVPN IRB assumed to be Symmetric or Asymmetric.

Regards, and lots of thanks in advance,
Sasha

Subject: rfc9251

Hi all,
I have a question regarding expected DP behavior in conjunction with RFC 9521: 
Are the PEs that support this RFC expected to decrement TTL in IP headers of 
multicast IP packets they forward?

This question is equally applicable to the “last mile” PEs that have received 
IGMP/MLD Joins and advertised them as SMET routes, and to the “first mile” PEs 
that receive and install these SMET routes.

The context for this question is my understanding that multicast IP traffic 
that is forwarded based on IMET route (e.g., to the PEs that have not 
advertised ability to advertise SMET routes)   does not undergo TTL decrement.

I have failed to find an answer to my question in the text of RFC 9251.

Your timely feedback would be highly appreciated.

Regards, and lots of thanks in advance,
Sasha
