Here’s a tutorial on how to get your IPTV up and running via igmpproxy.
Outdated! Nowadays I use udpxy, which is much more efficient for in-home usage.
Here’s my network interfaces:
- eth0 - WAN
- eth1 - LAN
Iptables default policy is DROP, so we need to allow IGMP traffic:
iptables -A FORWARD -p igmp -i eth0 -o eth1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -s 224.0.0.0/4 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -s 224.0.0.0/4 -j ACCEPT
Then we need to build igmpproxy, взять его можно здесь:
cd /usr/src
# wget the source file
cd igmpproxy-*
checkinstall -D -y --pkgname=igmpproxy
dpkg -i igmpproxy_0.1-beta2-1_amd64.deb
Customize config in /etc/igmpproxy.conf, you could get default one from /usr/local/etc/igmpproxy.conf, but there’s also my own example:
# keep turned off while more than 1 client
#quickleave
# input interface
phyint eth0 upstream ratelimit 0 threshold 1
# multicast default addresses
altnet 224.0.0.0/4
# PANs just to be sure
altnet 192.168.0.0/16
altnet 172.16.0.0/12
altnet 10.0.0.0/8
# ISP-specific addresses
altnet 93.100.0.0/16
# output interface
phyint eth1 downstream ratelimit 0 threshold 1
# wireless is ignored
phyint mon.wlan0 disabled
phyint wlan0 disabled
Now we are ready to go:
igmpproxy -d /etc/igmpproxy.conf \
> /var/log/igmpproxy.log 2>&1
In this particular situation I just placed it somewhere like /etc/rc.local, but to keep things organized you would like to create systemd service.
