VI-2-3 IGMP Snooping
IGMP snooping is the process of listening to Internet Group Management
Protocol (IGMP) network traffic. The feature allows a network switch to listen
in on the IGMP conversation between hosts and routers. By listening to these
conversations the switch maintains a map of which links need which IP
multicast streams. Multicasts may be filtered from the links which do not
need them and thus controls which ports receive specific multicast traffic.
This page allows you to enable/disable this feature.
