5.7 Multicast
5.7.1 IGMP Snooping
IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) snooping monitors the IGMP traffic between
hosts and multicast routers. The switch uses what IGMP snooping learns to forward multicast
traffic only to interfaces that are connected to interested receivers. This conserves bandwidth
by allowing the switch to send multicast traffic to only those interfaces that are connected to
hosts that want to receive the traffic, instead of flooding the traffic to all interfaces in the VLAN.
