Cli Example; Igmp Snooping; Overview - Dell PowerConnect M6220 Configuration Manual

You can also configure groups of protected ports, but unprotected ports are independent and cannot be
added to a group. Each group's configuration consists of a name and a mask of ports. A port can belong
to only one set of protected ports, but an unprotected port can be added to a group as a protected port.
The group name is configurable by the network administrator.
Use the switchport protected command to designate a port as protected. Use the show
switchport protected command to display a listing of the protected ports.
