IGMP proxy concept

IGMP proxy is used for providing both Internet and IPTV services on the same LAN subnet. This solution allows STB to establish an Internet connection for services like VoD, Spotify, Deezer, YouTube, Internet radio stations, and others.

Service scenarios

ONTs HALNy supports two IGMP proxy scenarios:

Internet and Multicast provided in two separate VLAN

Internet and Multicast provided in the same VLAN

ONT with firmware series V2.0.X

Service Scenario 1 – Internet and Multicast provided in two separate VLAN

WAN1 – Internet

WAN2 – IPTV Multicast

Portbinding settings

The same settings can be configured via XML provisioning:

    <WAN>
        <WAN1>
            <ACTIVE>YES</ACTIVE>
