multicast router is connected to port 1. As IGMP Snooping is disabled by default either in the 
switch or in  the VLANs, If  IGMP  Snooping should be enabled in  VLAN 100, the IGMP 
Snooping should be first enabled for the switch in Global Mode and in VLAN 100 and set port 
1 of VLAN 100 to be the mrouter port. 
The configuration steps are listed below: 
Switch(config)#ip igmp snooping 
Switch(config)#ip igmp snooping vlan 100 
Switch(config)#ip  igmp  snooping  vlan  100  mrouter  interface  ethernet

Multicast Configuration 
Suppose two programs are provided in the Multicast Server using multicast address Group1 
and Group2, three of four hosts running multicast applications are connected to port 2, 6, 10 
plays program1, while the host is connected to port 12 plays program 2.  
IGMP Snooping listening result:  
The multicast table built by IGMP Snooping in VLAN 100 indicates ports 1, 2, 6, 10 in Group1 
and ports 1, 12 in Group2. 
All the four hosts can receive the program of their choice: ports 2, 6, 10 will not receive the 
traffic of program 2 and port 12 will not receive the traffic of program 1.
