Problem fixed, IGMP on master clock was is in version 2 but IGMP on netgear switch was is in version 3. Downgrade to version 2 and all works fine.

Got the tech-support file from you. Thanks again!
Looks like the configuration is correct!
Could you please run CLI command on the switch as below:
1. show ip mroute summary
2. show ip igmp groups x/x/x(the PTP receiver port number)
3. show interface counters(do 'clear counters all' first)
BTW: I try on local switch, it's success. DUT can forward the multicast packet success.

Hi KrustyK,
Sorry, I notice that you disable igmp on global config, so it will cause switch cannot learning PTP receiver info.
So please remove below config and try agian:
no set igmp
no set igmp header-validation
no set igmp querier
no set igmp proxy-querier- KrustyKMar 13, 2018Aspirant
Just to be sure, to remove:
no set igmp
no set igmp header-validation
no set igmp querier
no set igmp proxy-querierI have to enter:
set igmp
set igmp header-validation
set igmp querier
set igmp proxy-querierIn the global config menu ?
But, in the web interface IGMP is enable, maybe it's a bug ?

Hi KrustyK
It's IGMP snooping global config.
'set igmp' is for IGMP Snooping global config;
'ip igmp' is for IGMP global config;
According to your cli command display info, looks like port 1/0/11 and 1/0/13 didn't learn IGMP groups(224.0.1.129) member. One more question: Is the PTP receiver can generate IGMP report to join the groups(224.0.1.129)?
Could you please collect the IGMP packet statistics for port 1/0/11 and 1/0/13, the command as below:
show ip igmp interface stats 1/0/11
show ip igmp interface stats 1/0/13
