To ensure SSM service for all hosts on a subnet, regardless of the IGMP version running on the
hosts, enable IGMPv3 on the interface that forwards multicast traffic onto the subnet.
Configuring SSM Mappings
By performing this configuration multiple times, you can map a multicast group to different
multicast sources.
Follow these steps to configure an IGMP SSM mapping:

| mask-length } source-address
Required
No IGMP mappings are
configured by default.
If IGMPv3 is enabled on a VLAN interface, and if a port in that VLAN is configured as a
simulated host, the simulated host will send IGMPv3 reports even if you did not specify a
multicast source when configuring simulated joining with the igmp-snooping host-join
command. In this case, the corresponding multicast group will not be created based on the
configured IGMP SSM mappings. For details about the igmp-snooping host-join command,
refer to IGMP Snooping Configuration Commands in the IP Multicast Command Reference.
