That's consistant with the problem statement: IGMP is the Internet Group Management Protocol, which is hardly Cisco specific. I think that you're thinking of IGRP, which is a Cisco-proprietary distance-vector interior routing protocol. I don't have any problems with my FreeBSD box and a neighboring Cisco router managing group membership with IGMP. louie To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
