Configure a Multicast Router VLAN

You can configure an interface to forward the snooped IGMP packets from a specific VLAN
only to the multicast router that is connected to the interface. The configuration is not needed
most of the time since the switch automatically detects a multicast router and forwards the
IGMP packets accordingly. It is needed only when you want to make sure that the multicast
router always receives IGMP packets from the switch in a complex network.
