How to implement the IGMP in Linux?
I would like to test IGMP and multicast address. Could you please show me some working example to learn it in better way please. Many thanks!

The Linux operating system supports IGMP. The Linux kernel at the core of the operating system only implements IGMP as host side, not router side, however a daemon such as mrouted can be used to act as a IGMP Linux router. There are also entire routing suites (such as XORP), which turn an ordinary computer into a full-fledged multicast router.
