Refuse Multicast Traffic

A host requesting to leave a multicast group sends an IGMP Leave message to the last-hop DR. If the host is the only remaining receiver for that group on the subnet, the last-hop DR is responsible for sending a PIM Prune message up the RPT to prune its branch to the RP.

  1. After receiving an IGMP Leave message, the gateway removes the interface on which it is received from the outgoing interface list of the (*,G) entry. If the (*,G) entry has no remaining outgoing interfaces, multicast traffic for that group is no longer forwarded to that subnet.
  2. If the (*,G) entry has no remaining outgoing interfaces, the last-hop DR sends a PIM Prune message to towards the RP. All routers along the way remove the interface on which the message was received from the outgoing interface list of the (*,G) entry. If on any router there is at least one outgoing interface listed for that (*,G) entry, the Prune message is not forwarded.
