The output shows that GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 on Switch B has joined 224.1.1.1 but not 224.1.1.2.
Assume that Source 2 starts sending multicast traffic to 224.1.1.1. Use the display multicast forwarding-
table to display the multicast forwarding table information.
# Display the information about 224.1.1.1 in the multicast forwarding table on Switch A.

The output shows that Switch A maintains a multicast forwarding entry for multicast packets from Source
1 to 224.1.1.1. No forwarding entry exists to forward packets from Source 2 to 224.1.1.1, which
indicates that multicast packets from Source 2 are blocked.

Troubleshooting IGMP snooping configuration

Layer 2 multicast forwarding cannot function

Symptom
Layer 2 multicast forwarding cannot function.
Analysis
IGMP snooping is not enabled.
Solution
Use the display current-configuration command to display the running status of IGMP snooping.
1.
If IGMP snooping is not enabled, use the igmp-snooping command to enable IGMP snooping
2.
globally, and then use the igmp-snooping enable command to enable IGMP snooping in VLAN
view.
If IGMP snooping is disabled only for the corresponding VLAN, use the igmp-snooping enable
3.
command in VLAN view to enable IGMP snooping in the corresponding VLAN.
