Use the show mac address-table multicast user EXEC command to display the Layer 2 multicast
entries for all VLANs. Use the command in privileged EXEC mode to display specific multicast entries.

| [vlan-id [count] | igmp-snooping [count] | user [count]] [ | {begin | exclude | include}

ip igmp snooping multicast user EXEC command to display IP multicast addresses.
Note Beginning with Cisco IOS Release 12.1(11)EA1, the show mac address-table multicast command
replaces the show mac-address-table multicast command (with the hyphen).
