Example: Manage static group member configurations in Amazon VPC Transit Gateways

This example shows statically adding multicast members to a group. Hosts cannot use the IGMP protocol to join or leave multicast groups. Any instances that are in subnets associated with the multicast domain can send multicast traffic, and the group members receive the multicast traffic.

Use the following steps to complete the configuration:

  1. Create a VPC. For more information about creating VPCs, see Creating a VPC in the Amazon VPC User Guide.

  2. Create a subnet in the VPC. For more information about creating subnets, see Creating a subnet in your VPC in the Amazon VPC User Guide.

  3. Create a transit gateway configured for multicast traffic. For more information, see Create a transit gateway using Amazon VPC Transit Gateways.

  4. Create a VPC attachment. For more information, see Create a VPC attachment using Amazon VPC Transit Gateways.

  5. Create a multicast domain configured for no IGMP support, and support for statically adding sources. For more information, see Create a static source multicast domain using Amazon VPC Transit Gateways.

    Use the following settings:

    • Disable IGMPv2 support.

    • Disable Static sources support.

  6. Create an association between subnets in the transit gateway VPC attachment and the multicast domain. For more information see Associating VPC attachments and subnets with a multicast domain using Amazon VPC Transit Gateways.

  7. Add the members to the multicast group. For more information, see Register members with a multicast group using Amazon VPC Transit Gateways.
