## Clientless Web Isolation is loading with a blank screen on a Windows device.
324+
325+
This issue can occur due to a conflict between browser settings and Windows network configuration.
326+
327+
In Chromium-based browsers like Chrome and Edge, the **Anonymize local IPs exposed by WebRTC** flag

(`chrome://flags/#enable-webrtc-hide-local-ips-with-mdns` or `edge://flags/#enable-webrtc-hide-local-ips-with-mdns`)

— when set to `Enabled` or left at `Default` — hides local IP addresses by replacing them with mDNS hostnames. Multicast DNS (mDNS) hostnames rely on multicast traffic to be resolved properly on the local network.
330+
331+
The [Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)](https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/network-layer/what-is-igmp/) allows devices to join a multicasting group. On Windows, `IGMPLevel` determines whether the system participates in multicast group membership. When `IGMPLevel` is set to `0`, multicast support is disabled.

333+
To resolve this error, review the following options:
334+
335+
| `IGMPLevel` | **Anonymize local IPs exposed by WebRTC** setting | Result in Clientless Web Isolation |
336+
|--------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------|
337+
| `0` (disabled) | **Enabled / Default** | ❌ Blank screen |
338+
| `0` (disabled) | **Disabled** | ✅ Works - browser will use local IP address |
339+
| `2` (enabled) | **Enabled / Default** | ✅ Works - mDNS resolves successfully |
