IGMP
Internet Group Management Protocol. An Internet protocol, defined in RFC 2236, that enables
an Internet computer to report its multicast group membership to neighboring multicast
routers. Multicasting allows a computer on the Internet to send content to other computers
that have identified themselves as interested in receiving it.
IGMP snooping
A feature that prevents the flow of multicast stream packets within a virtual LAN (VLAN)
and forwards the multicast traffic through a path to only the clients that want to receive it. A
DWS-1008 switch uses IGMP snooping to monitor the Internet Group Management Protocol
(IGMP) conversation between hosts and routers. When the switch detects an IGMP report
from a host for a given multicast group, it adds the host's port number to the list for that group.
When it detects an IGMP host leaving a group, the switch removes the port number from the
group list.
