Fix Recommendation

Configure the DR to filter the IGMP and MLD report messages to allow hosts to join only multicast groups that have been approved, as shown in the example below:

Create Prefix-List IPv4 Multicast Group:

- configure router policy-options
- config>router>policy-options# begin
- config>router>policy-options# prefix-list Multicast-Group
- config>router>policy-options>prefix-list$ prefix 239.8.0.0/16 exact
- config>router>policy-options>prefix-list$ exit

Create Prefix-List IPv6 Multicast Group:

- configure router policy-options
- config>router>policy-options# begin
- config>router>policy-options# prefix-list Multicast-Group-IPv6
- config>router>policy-options>prefix-list$ prefix ff3e::/16 exact
- config>router>policy-options>prefix-list$ exit

Create a policy statement for IGMP:

- config>router>policy-options# policy-statement IMPORT_IGMP_JOIN
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement$ entry 10
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry# from prefix-list "Multicast-Group"
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry$ action accept
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry>action$ exit
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry$ exit
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement$ default-action drop
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>default-action$ exit
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement$ exit
- config>router>policy-options# commit

Create a policy statement for MLD:

- config>router>policy-options# policy-statement IMPORT_MLD_JOIN
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement$ entry 10
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry$ from prefix-list "Multicast-Group-IPv6"
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry$ action accept
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry>action$ exit
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>entry$ exit
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement$ default-action drop
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement>default-action$ exit
- config>router>policy-options>policy-statement$ exit
- config>router>policy-options# commit
- config>router>policy-options# exit all

Apply import policy to the IGMP and MLD interface:

- configure router igmp interface "TO-CE" import "IMPORT_IGMP_JOIN"
- configure router mld interface "TO-CE" import "IMPORT_MLD_JOIN"

Check Contents

Review the configuration of the DR to verify it is filtering IGMP and MLD report messages, allowing hosts to join only groups that have been approved.

Verify the import policy is applied on the IGMP and MLD interface using the command below:

- show router igmp interface "TO-CE" detail | match "Import-Policy"
Import-Policy : IMPORT_IGMP_JOIN Subnet Check : Enabled

- show router mld interface "TO-CE" detail | match "Import-Policy"
Import-Policy : IMPORT_MLD_JOIN

If the DR is not filtering IGMP and MLD report messages, this is a finding.
