Abstract
This disclosure is directed to techniques for internet group management protocol tunneling. This may be done by electing, by each of a plurality of multicast gateways in a subnet, a designated router in the subnet. The designated router sends internet group management protocol queries to at least one router in the subnet. The designated router further tunnels internet group management protocol reports.
