z
IGMP is required on Router A, and IGMP Snooping is required on Switch A.
Router A is the IGMP querier.
z
Switch A’s GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 belongs to VLAN 1024, GigabitEthernet 1/0/2
through GigabitEthernet 1/0/4 belong to VLAN 11 through VLAN 13 respectively,
and Host A through Host C are attached to GigabitEthernet 1/0/2 through
GigabitEthernet 1/0/4 of Switch A.
z
Configure the multicast VLAN feature so that Router A just sends multicast data to
VLAN 1024 rather than to each VLAN when the three hosts attached to Switch A
need the multicast data.

III. Configuration procedure
1)
Configure an IP address for each interconnecting interface
Configure an IP address and subnet mask for each interface as per
Figure 4-2
. The
detailed configuration steps are omitted here.
2)
Configure Router A
# Enable IP multicast routing, enable PIM-DM on each interface and enable IGMP on
GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.
