Technical Summary

   This document specifies a revised Version 3 of the Internet Group
   Management Protocol, IGMPv3.  IGMP is the protocol used by IPv4
   systems to report their IP multicast group memberships to neighboring
   multicast routers.  Version 3 of IGMP adds support for source
   filtering, that is, the ability for a system to report interest in
   receiving packets only from specific source addresses, or from all
   but specific source addresses, sent to a particular multicast
   address.  That information may be used by multicast routing protocols
   to avoid delivering multicast packets from specific sources to
   networks where there are no interested receivers.

   This document obsoletes RFC 3376.

Working Group Summary

   Was there anything in the WG process that is worth noting?
   For example, was there controversy about particular points 
   or were there decisions where the consensus was
   particularly rough? 

GV> This document has had extensive reviews and discussions by the PIM WG, last-call and various directorates.
GV> The original IGMPv3 dates back to 2002 and this document updated RFC3376 based upon implementation experience and intends to move to Internet Standard

Document Quality

   Are there existing implementations of the protocol?  Have a 
   significant number of vendors indicated their plan to
   implement the specification?  Are there any reviewers that
   merit special mention as having done a thorough review,
   e.g., one that resulted in important changes or a
   conclusion that the document had no substantive issues?  If
   there was a MIB Doctor, Media Type, or other Expert Review,
   what was its course (briefly)?  In the case of a Media Type
   Review, on what date was the request posted?

GV> Document quality good. When using the IETF diff tool all modifications and clarifications from rfc3376 can be easily found. The Appendix has information about certain specificities and changes found within this document
