Please add as also promised IPTV config for KPN NL: I heard this would be added fully in Omada SDN 5.9. Please confirm.

 

Technical details of Television (IPTV)


KPN uses the Routed IPTV configuration. The traditional bridge method cannot be used.


By using a router that supports VLANs and routing rules in the router, the TV receiver can communicate with both the Internet and the TV platform. The routed method contains the IPTV platform and the TV receiver connected to the router.


In this case, the router functions as the last device from the TV platform, which is why you need the IGMP proxy
enable (IGMPv2). In addition, you must enable IGMP snooping on the router (and any switches), between the router and the TV receiver. This ensures that the multicast TV traffic is only on the ports of the switch is offered, to which the TV is connected. IGMP fast-leave is necessary to cut unnecessary streams
close, such as, for example, the process of switching from channel to channel.


Technical details TV (network specification and configuration)


• Ethernet VLAN 4 (802.1q)
• Address via DHCP required to include option60 (Vendor Class Identifier) with value: IPTV_RG.
• Specific route information can be requested via DHCP (option 55 contains 1, 3, 28 and 121)
• Additional; Do not use DNS servers + do not use default gateway. Only specific routes.
• Enable IGMP proxy including fast-leave option required for TV signal in home network (min. IGMPv2).
• Routed mode. KPN uses routed mode, not bridge mode


Note: If you have a lot of upstream traffic, you'll want that calling and Interactive TV to take precedence over you here
link. To prevent loss of quality, give priority to calling and Interactive TV
means of value 5 (802.1p).


Local network (home network)


• Hand out IPv4 addresses (private range rfc1918) + DNS server(s) via DHCP server.
• Hand out IPv6 addresses and DNS server(s) (range of obtained prefix) via SLAAC and/or DHCPv6.
• Activate IGMP snooping function for the network ports in your equipment (prevents TV signal on all ports.
