Hi all
i know that switches have igmp enabled by default, what happens to multicast traffic when this is the case? Is it flooded to all ports or not?
what happens in the case of no pim router on querier? Do they drop or forward still ?
cheers

The multicast range 224.0.0.x is link local and flooded anyway.
For the rest, if there is no querier then multicast is treated as broadcast or at least it is on most switches (I seem to remember a case on here where without a querier it is just dropped).
