Hi all,

I might be coming with a silly question now but my experience in Multicast is not so well developed. On an equipment that I have access to, I just noticed some messages while activating IGMP debugging in a setup that was functional for some time and is still working now, albeit with some strange behavior.

Basically the topology looks like this:
Streaming Device --> Multicast Router (ASR) --> Distribution Switch (C4924-ME) --> IGMP proxies --> end hosts
The Distribution switch has:
- IGMP snooping enabled
- IGMPv3 support toward the Secondary network (although we don't use the extra functionality provided by IGMPv3...)
- is the IGMP querier.
All works well (or seems so) except for some corner cases when I noticed abnormal behavior.
Activating debug ip igmp snooping on the DS switch, I see things like below.

IGMPSN: group: Failed to create Host entry for 10.10.10.1, group 239.10.23.22 on port Gi1/3 this in turn causes the other error upon 10.10.10.1 (an IGMP proxy in the secondary network) leaving the group: IGMPSN: group: Leave from a non existant Host 10.10.10.1 group 239.10.23.22 on port Gi1/3

10.10.10.1 = an IGMP proxy in the network connected to the DS (which is a black cloud for me) VLC is running somewhere on a host behind the layer with the IGMP proxy, joining a mcast group and leaving it for my specific debugging.

I've been googling a bit without success and also activated more debugging but stil did not get a more meaningful idea about what is causing this.

Did anyone else stumble upon such behavior ?
Am I missing something that's really basic but escaping my eyes ?
I'd be very grateful for any kind of advice :) even to read the manual if I missed something that was way too obvious.

Thanks in advance,
Mihai
