Note: Certain Ethernet switches support IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol), a protocol

that provides the ability to 'prune' multicast traffic, so that it travels only to those end destinations that

require that traffic. If this is the case, and IGMP is correctly configured on all the Ethernet switches,

then multicast audio will not flood throughout the network, but will instead be sent only over the links

required to deliver it to subscribed devices.
