the Switch does not evaluate Query and Report packets received,
and
it sends (floods) received data packets with a Multicast address as
the destination address to all ports.
"GMRP" allows you to enable GMRP globally for the entire switch.
It GMRP is disabled, then
the Switch does not generate any GMRP packets,
does not evaluate any GMRP packets received, and
sends (floods) received data packets to all ports.
The Switch is transparent for received GMRP packets, regardless of the
GMRP setting.
"inactive" disables GMRP and IGMP Snooping.
