IGMP Router
Adding a Router Port
Depending on your network connections, IGMP snooping may not always be
able to locate the IGMP querier. If the IGMP querier is a known multicast router/
switch connected over the network to an interface (port or trunk) on your
Managed Switch, you can manually configure the interface (and a specified
VLAN) to join all the current multicast groups supported by the attached router.
This can ensure that multicast traffic is passed to all the appropriate interfaces
within the Managed Switch.
