3.5.3 IGMP Snooping Multicast Forwarding Table
The multicast forwarding table displays how packets that arrive with a multicast destination MAC
address are forwarded.
The destination MAC address is combined with the VLAN ID when a packet is sent into the switch.
And the multicast searching and forwarding status is displayed in the multicast forwarding table. If
there is no match found, the packet is flooded to all interfaces in VLAN or discarded. It depends on
the configuration. If there is a match found, the packet is forwarded to the interfaces which are the
members of the multicast group.
