IGMP is IP protocol 2. Multicast data is often carried in UDP (IP protocol 17).
See rfc 1700 (which is obsolete but for sure 2 and
17 have not been re-assigned) section "Assigned Internet Protocol Numbers".Cabling-Design.com Forums website is not affiliated with any of the manufacturers or service providers discussed here. All logos and trade names are the property of their respective owners.
