Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure IGMP snooping proxying in a VLAN, complete the following tasks:
Enable IGMP snooping in the VLAN
•
Determine the source IP address for the IGMP reports sent by the proxy
•
Determine the source IP address for the IGMP leave messages sent by the proxy
•

Enabling IGMP snooping proxying

The IGMP snooping proxying function works on a per-VLAN basis. After you enable the function in a
VLAN, the device works as the IGMP snooping proxy for the downstream hosts and upstream router in
the VLAN.
