Hi!

I'm using Debian 10 and I'm having this issue.

Jul 29 17:42:59 vyos igmpproxy[10347]: MC-Router API already in use; Errno(98): Address already in use

Does anybody know why?

This is my config file

quickleave

# Configuration for eth1.36 (upstream interface)
phyint eth1.36 upstream ratelimit 0 threshold 1
        altnet 224.0.0.0/8
        altnet 10.0.0.0/8

# Configuration for eth3 (downstream interface)
phyint eth3 downstream ratelimit 0 threshold 1
        altnet 192.168.5.0/24

Thanks!

It means that igmpproxy (or some other multicast routing daemon) is already running.

Only one instance of multicast routing daemon can be started at the same time.

Hi @pali

Do you know where I can found the process that use the multicast routing deamon? When I do "ps aux", I found nothing about igmpproxy...

I'm using VyOS 1.3 that is based on Debian 10.

I do not know how to identify such process. Maybe netstat could be usefull. I know these multicast routing daemons: smcroute, mrouted, igmpproxy.

Hi, I just get couth with this myself. On debian10, a unit systemd exist and is started when you install the package. Simply run systemctl stop igmpproxy and you should be good to go.

I used it with VyOS which is based on Debian 10. The problem is fixed. There was another process that was using the MC-Router API. Thanks for your help!
