Question:

How do I distinguish between the "Upstream" and "Downstream" interfaces when configuring an IGMP Proxy?

Answer:

  • Upstream Interface: This should be set to the interface connected to the multicast server or source (Streamers).
  • Downstream Interface: This should be set to the interface connected to the multicast receivers or clients (such as IPTV clients).
