IGMP Config
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is an Internet protocol that provides a way for an
Internet computer to report its multicast group membership to adjacent routers. It allows
Compex SGX3226 to forward multicast traffic intelligently. The switch "snoops" the IGMP
query and report messages and forwards traffic to only the ports that request the multicast traffic.
This prevents the switch from broadcasting the traffic to all ports and possibly affecting network
performance.
The membership of a host group is dynamic - hosts may join and leave groups at any time. There
is no restriction on the location or number of members in a host group. A host may be a member
of more than one group at a time. A host need not be a member of a group to send datagrams to it.
