ip multicast
Use the ip multicast command in Global Configuration mode to set the
administrative mode of the IP multicast forwarder in the router to active. For
multicast routing to become operational, IGMP must be currently enabled.
An error message is displayed on the CLI if multicast routing is enabled while
IGMP is disabled. However, the IP multicast mode configuration is stored in
the multicast configuration file and is automatically enabled once IGMP is
enabled.
