IGMP Snooping Configuration Examples
Configuring IGMP Snooping
Network requirements
To prevent multicast traffic from being flooded at Layer 2, enable IGMP snooping on Layer 2 switches.
z As shown in Figure 3-3, Router A connects to a multicast source (Source) through Ethernet 1/0/2,
and to Switch A through Ethernet 1/0/1.
z Run PIM-DM and IGMP on Router A. Run IGMP snooping on Switch A. Router A acts as the IGMP
querier.
z The multicast source sends multicast data to the multicast group 224.1.1.1. Host A and Host B are
receivers of the multicast group 224.1.1.1.

Configuration procedure
1) Configure the IP address of each interface
Configure an IP address and subnet mask for each interface as per
Figure 3-3. The detailed
configuration steps are omitted.
2) Configure Router A
# Enable IP multicast routing, enable PIM-DM on each interface, and enable IGMP on Ethernet 1/0/1.
