How can I enable IGMP V3 on a R550 Unleashed ?

Truman

Hi,

I did not find any setting on the unleashed master for activating igmp v3. Is there a possibility to enable multicast and igmp v3 ?

I have installed Unleashed 200.14 firmware on my R550 Master and also on the other ap´s.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello @Truman,

Both IGMP v2/v3 query are enabled by default. To validate run below commands from AP-Mode.

get qos

To enable run below

set qos igmp_query v3 enable

Thank you for your fast reply.

So I ssh´ed with terminal on my Mac into my master ap and tried to go into ap mode by typing ap-mode in the command line. But it says, the command is either unrecognized or incomplete. Am I missing something ?

Truman

@Parik_MN : Ok, I got it. I had to log into a client ap and not in the master ip.

The output of get qos is:

So it seems, there is a igmpv6 enabled, but no v2/v3. I will enable v3 now.

Truman

Do I need to do this on all access points ? And what about the master ?

Parik_MN

Hello @Truman,

Below are the command line to run AP CLI commands from Master AP.

ruckus# ap-mode
You have all rights in this mode.
ruckus(ap-mode)#

You could also run remote ap cli command from Debug mode to execute the command on all connected APs.

ruckus(debug)# remote_ap_cli -A "set qos igmp_query v3 enable"

Regards,

Parik

Truman

Perfect, thank you.

Truman

@Parik_MN :

After my HomeKit implementation is still not working, I checked again the igmp status and for whatever reason, it was again disabled. How could that be, that it is disabled, after I enabled it by using the cli commands, specified by you ?
I have general HomeKit problems, since I exchanged all the access points from another brand to Ruckus.
Is there any guideline, how to get Apple HomeKit working with wireless connected components ?

Thank you in advance for your answer.

Hello @Truman,

Looks like AP specific config is not persistent. Please run below commands from Master AP to retain the config post reboot. In addition to IGMP, I have added commands to disable directed multicast and broadcast which disables the packet conversion from broadcast/multicast to unicast.

ruckus> enable
ruckus# config
ruckus(config)# ap-group "System Default"
ruckus(config-apgrp)# qos igmp-query v2
ruckus(config-apgrp)# qos igmp-query v3
ruckus(config-apgrp)# no lan 1 qos directed-mcast
ruckus(config-apgrp)# no lan 2 qos directed-mcast

ruckus(config-apgrp)# exit

ruckus(config)# wlan <wlan_name> #Make sure to enter the right WLAN name.
ruckus(config-wlan)# no directed-threshold
ruckus(config-wlan)# no qos directed-mulicast

Regards,

Parik

Truman

Hello @Parik_MN,

thanks a lot again for the detailed instructions.

Everything worked so far, besides the commands:

ruckus(config-apgrp)# no lan 1 qos directed-mcast
ruckus(config-apgrp)# no lan 2 qos directed-mcast

and

ruckus(config-wlan)# no qos directed-mulicast

For this 3 commands I am getting a "The command is either unrecognized or incomplete. To view a list of commands that you can run from this context, type '?' or 'help'." message.

Regards,

Hello Christian,

Sorry for the typo, and missing few steps. Here's the complete steps to disable directed-mcast on lan port.

ruckus> enable
ruckus# config
ruckus(config)# ap-group "System Default"
ruckus(config-apgrp)# model r550 port-setting
ap_name: r550

ruckus(config-apgrp-port)# no lan 1 qos directed-mcast
Setting Directed Multicast for port#(2) to 0

ruckus(config-apgrp-port)# no lan 2 qos directed-mcast
Setting Directed Multicast for port#(1) to 0

To disable directed multicast on WLAN:

ruckus(config)# wlan <wlan_name>

ruckus(config-wlan)# no qos directed-multicast
The command was executed successfully. To save the changes, type 'end' or 'exit'.

Regards,

Parik

Not sure those commands are necessary. You can show that qos directed-mcast is disabled for each lan port of your AP:

ruckus> enable
ruckus# config
ruckus(config)# ap-group "System Default"
ruckus(config-apgrp)# qos igmp-query v2
ruckus(config-apgrp)# qos igmp-query v3
ruckus(config-apgrp)# show

The "show" command will list all of your AP's and display their IGMP and Directed Multicast settings for each lan port.

When I try to set the eth ports I get the following error:

ruckus(config-apgrp)# model r550 port-setting
>ap_name: r550
>The model could not be configured in unleashed.

I need full multicast Traffic to pass from wifi-clients to LAN.
What's wrong with Ruckus to complicate these things?
I use european KNX IP and it's broadcasting on 224.0.23.12
Thanks to Ruckus I can't control my wireless KNX devices.
With all other APs from Unifi, Mikrotik, Lancom, Cisco etc it's working!
WTF?

vesalius

Try the link below. you can login to each AP and go straight to the 'set' commands if they are not the unleashed master.
