This command may also be used to disable multicast router solicitation

messages when the upstream router does not support MRD, to reduce
the loading on a busy upstream router, or when IGMP snooping is
disabled in a VLAN.

XAMPLE
This example disables sending of multicast router solicitation messages on
VLAN 1.
Console(config)#no ip igmp snooping vlan 1 mrd
Console(config)#
This command configures a static source address for locally generated
query and report messages used by IGMP proxy reporting. Use the no form
to restore the default source address.

IGMP Snooping uses a null IP address of 0.0.0.0 for the source of IGMP
query messages which are proxied to downstream hosts to indicate that it
is not the elected querier, but is only proxying these messages as defined
in RFC 4541. The switch also uses a null address in IGMP reports sent to
upstream ports.
Many hosts do not implement RFC 4541, and therefore do not understand
query messages with the source address of 0.0.0.0. These hosts will
therefore not reply to the queries, causing the multicast router to stop
sending traffic to them.
To resolve this problem, the source address in proxied IGMP query and
report messages can be replaced with any valid unicast address (other
than the router's own address) using this command.
