Embodiment Construction
[0034] The IGMP protocol maintains the information of the multicast group under the interface of the routing device. When the multicast flow arrives at the routing device, it forwards the multicast data to the interface of the routing device. The IGMP protocol needs to maintain an IGMP protocol state machine for each multicast group under the interface of the routing device; the protocol state machine needs to save the information that the system can uniquely identify the user, such as user ID, multicast group address, etc.
[0035] When the multicast stream arrives, the routing device can properly encapsulate the multicast Layer 3 message at Layer 2 according to the above information that can uniquely identify the user, such as the user ID. For example, when a PPPoE user requests broadcasting, the session id and other necessary information can be obtained according to the user ID when forwarding the message. Therefore, the final encapsulated multicast message can be received b...
