IGMP Snooping Configuration

IGMP Snooping allows the switch to forward multicast traffic only to those ports that
request it. IGMP snooping prevents multicast traffic from being flooded to all ports. The
switch learns which server hosts are interested in receiving multicast traffic, and forwards it
only to ports connected to those servers.

Table 6-82

describes the commands used to configure IGMP Snooping.
