igmp_snooping
This is an old revision of the document!
Port states:
- mrouter (router port)
- subscriber (port belongs to established multicast group)
- none
Forwarding cases (igmp snooping enabled on vlan):
- multicast traffic received on “none”
- if no mrouter present, flood to all ports
- otherwise flood to mrouter ports
- igmp received on “none”
- flood to mrouter ports only
Other notes:
- if igmp snooping is disabled, multicast traffic is flooded to all ports in vlan, regardless of frame nature (i.e. it is igmp or not); static multicast fdb entries are ignored;
