You need an IGMP request to send Membership Queries
, as sca already explained.
If you cannot configure the router for this, you can use one of your computers. Seeing how the full multicast route works would be redundant (and I never did), I suggest you try abusing igmpproxy .
First create a dummy interface up (this is not permanent!):
ip tap add dev tap6 mode tap
Write igmpproxy.conf:
# Dummy upstream interface. phyint tap6 upstream ratelimit 0 threshold 1
Finally, run igmpproxy (with root privileges):
igmpproxy -v /path/to/igmpproxy.conf
