IGMP Snooping is a short term for Internet Group Management Protocol Snooping, a mechanism running on a layer 2 device for managing and controlling multicast groups. A Layer 2 device running IGMP Snooping analyzes the received IGMP packets, establishes a mapping relationship between ports and MAC multicast addresses, and forwards multicast data according to the mapping relationship. When the Layer 2 device does not run IGMP Snooping, the multicast data is broadcast at Layer 2; when the Layer 2 device runs IGMP Snooping, the multicast data of the known multicast group will not be broadcast at Layer 2, but at Layer 2. As shown in the figure below, when the Layer 2 multicast device does not run IGMP Snooping, the IP multicast packets are broadcast in the VLAN; when the Layer 2 multicast device runs IGMP Snooping, the IP multicast packets are only sent to the group members recipient.<\/p>\n

Examples<\/h2>\n
Simplified topology: Basic configuration \/roles: (top down) server: During the test, VLC is used as the multicast server to provide the multicast service: udp:\/\/225.0.0.1:1234, the server IP is 3.3.3.10 router: Run the multicast routing protocol and enable IGMP, and use Ruijie S57 Layer 3 switch to simulate the test. The main configurations are as follows:<\/p>\n
Enable multicast routing<\/h2>\n
ip multicast-routing Configure the uplink port , connect to the server, here is simply to select the PIM dense mode, the actual network scale is large, and the multicast use is less, it is recommended to use the sparse mode interface GigabitEthernet 0\/23 no switchport no ip proxy- arp ip pim dense-mode ip address 3.3.3.3 255.255.255.0 Configure the downlink port. The PIM dense mode is simply selected here. The actual network scale is large and the multicast usage is small. It is recommended to use the sparse mode interface VLAN 1 no ip proxy- arp ip pim dense-mode ip address 2.2.2.1 255.255.255.0<\/p>\n
