Basic Concepts in IGMP Snooping
IGMP Snooping related ports
As shown in Figure 3-2 , Router A connects to the multicast source, IGMP Snooping runs on Switch A
and Switch B, Host A and Host C are receiver hosts (namely, multicast group members).

Router port
Member port
Ports involved in IGMP Snooping, as shown in
Figure 3-2 , are described as follows:
z
Router port: A router port is a port on the Layer 3 multicast device (DR or IGMP querier) side of the
Ethernet switch. In the figure, Ethernet 1/0/1 of Switch A and Ethernet 1/0/1 of Switch B are router
ports. A switch registers all its local router ports in its router port list.
z
Member port: A member port is a port on the multicast group member side of the Ethernet switch.
In the figure, Ethernet 1/0/2 and Ethernet 1/0/3 of Switch A and Ethernet 1/0/2 of Switch B are
