IGMP
Internet Group Management Protocol
IGMP snooping is a method that network switches use to identify multicast groups, which are groups of computers or devices that all receive the same network traffic. It enables switches to forward packets to the correct devices in their network.
IGMP snooping is not a feature of the IGMP protocol, but is rather an adaptation built into some network switches.
IGMP Querier - Enable or disable the ability of the VLAN to query supported devices and sub- scribe the port to the requested Multicast Group(s). Please note that only one Querier should be active on a given VLAN, and therefore the Querier should be disabled on all other switches in the VLAN group.
