The product Model is : SmartAX MA5633.
Multicast streams is not working on CMC MA5633.
Below added 2 lines for the multicast protocol (igmp version
2) but missing the multicast streams on TV set or with VLC on my PC.

First we need to collect logs (Upstream+ downstream+
multicast)

After analyzing the logs we understood that the version of
MA5633 is R17C00 now, the version of R17C00 is not fully supported for
multicast. It is recommended to upgrade the R18C00 version before testing again.
Also We need to add two below configuration:
cable
service-class name test downstream priority 5
cable multicast group qos
default service-class test
and modified one configuration:
igmp
mode snooping à igmp mode proxy
Then we reset the CM 1, it works after online.
For the CM 2, we did nothing changed compare to CM 1.
After upgrading firmware to R18 and also adding above IGMP
configuration, Multicast streamlining starts working properly.
