Displaying IGMP snooping groups on a VLAN

When a port receives an IGMP report, a snooping group entry gets created. After the entry is created, multicast data streams are forwarded to the port or ports specified in the entry, as well as the multicast router within the VLAN. The Snoop Group tab allows you to view the snooping group entries and the ports to which they forward multicast data.

To display IGMP snooping groups on a VLAN:

  1. From the Device Manager menu bar, choose IP Routing > IGMP.
  2. The IGMPSnoop dialog box opens with the Snoop Globals tab displayed.
  3. Click the Snoop Group tab.
  4. The Snoop Group tab opens.

The table that follows describes the fields in the Snoop Group tab.

.

MacAddr

PortMap
Indicates the ports that belong to the same multicast group, on a per VLAN basis. The value in the PortMap field indicates the actual number of the port.
