A port which is not configured as an MVR receiver or source port can
use IGMP snooping to join or leave multicast groups using the standard
rules for multicast filtering.
Receiver ports can belong to different VLANs, but should not be
configured as a member of the MVR VLAN. IGMP snooping can also be
used to allow a receiver port to dynamically join or leave multicast
groups not sourced through the MVR VLAN. Also, note that VLAN
membership for MVR receiver ports cannot be set to trunk mode (see
the switchport mode command).
One or more interfaces may be configured as MVR source ports. A
source port is able to both receive and send data for multicast groups
which it has joined through the MVR protocol or which have been
assigned through the mvr vlan group command.
Only IGMP version 2 or 3 hosts can issue multicast join or leave
messages. If MVR must be configured for an IGMP version 1 host, the
multicast groups must be statically assigned using the mvr vlan group
command.
