Dear friends,
I have a flat L2 network, topology are as below:
Group of Crestron NVX streamer --> Switch A 2960X --> Core switch 2960X --> Switch B 2960X --> another group of Streamer
IGMP V2 are enable for all switch, IGMP snooping querier enable on Core switch, stream are working normally within their own switch (inside Switch A or B), however, all stream flood to the trunk link between Switch A/ B to Core Switch, but drop after arrived Core switch, seems the all multicast data forwarded to the Querier (mrouter) location, how to limited the multicast data only happen on onw switch but not forward to the querier?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello @tony4336 ,
this is normal for IGMP snooping if a port is classified as mrouter port it will not be subject to IGMP snooping and all known multicast groups are flloded to it.
The port is classified as mrouter port if PIM messages or IGMP queries are received on it and this is what happens with IGMP querier on the core switch,
You would need PIM snooping that I'm afraid is not avaiable on your switch platforms to have a more intelligent managemt of traffic to mrouter ports.
Hope to help
Giuseppe

Hello
Just to confirm , you don’t have ip M/C enabled and you wish to using MC between hosts within the SAME vlan over trunks vis the core switch?
If you have enabled igmp snooping querier already make sure the l3 interface of the vlan has an ip address and is enabled?
show ip igmp interface vlan x

*** All the multicast from edge switch forward to the Core switch, but no receiver request for this stream, thus it dones't goes to Gi0/8 ( another set of same video encoder config
Do I miss any setting or I can apply some filter to block the multicast forward to the Core switch but still place the Querier in the Core switch?

Hi Giuseppe,
I think you are right, so can I set some filter but still place the IGMP querier into the Core switch without forward all multicast to the mroute port?
