Hi,
I'm using mac address-table to switch traffic from n ports to 1 ports and then back 1 port to n ports. It's working for unicast ip.dst traffic. But for multicast ip.dst traffic the frames are switched to all ports. So I can tell that the mac address-table is not respected. Is there a way to force to follow the mac address-table: I don't want the multicast ip.dst frames to be routed to other port than the ones in the mac-address table.
Thanks.

- Isn't that the idea of multicast ?

Yes and I know it, but I want my cisco not to look ip level.

- You still may need to enable IGMP snooping to prevent multicast from broadcasting to all ports.

igmp snooping was disabled.
I activated the igmp snooping. Here is the status:
AFDXCUT-SW2-A350_T48#show ip igmp snooping
Global IGMP Snooping configuration:
-----------------------------------
IGMP snooping : Enabled
IGMPv3 snooping (minimal) : Enabled
Report suppression : Enabled
TCN solicit query : Disabled
TCN flood query count : 2
Last Member Query Interval : 1000
Vlan 1:
--------
IGMP snooping : Enabled
IGMPv2 immediate leave : Disabled
Explicit host tracking : Enabled
Multicast router learning mode : pim-dvmrp
Last Member Query Interval : 1000
CGMP interoperability mode : IGMP_ONLY
But I have still multicast traffic forwarded to the bad port.
Do I have to switch igmp snooping mode?
Thanks.
