When PIMD is running, i am not able to start igmp proxy as well.
In the past I have setup such scenarios with routers and both functions works fine in parallel.

But on pfsense it seems not to work correctly. Maybe this behaviour is by design or can someone give a hint where is my misunderstanding or maybe where to look deeper.

many thanx for help

@thiamata I believe both are independent of each other; so, what you're experiencing maybe a conflict. I could not find a pfSense/Netgate document specifically; however, these may shed some light.

Is it for IPTV in your scenario?
