How do the Multicast routers sniff IGMP/MLD messages from the network?

I checked the XORP, pimd etc. Most of them just open a RAW socket with
protocol set to IPPROTO_IGMP. But using this the router gets the
packets addressed to 224.0.0.1 only.

How does it receive IGMPv2 and IGMPv3 membership reports sent by other hosts?

Thanks,
Sachin
