Default: Disable 
 
Active -   
In Active mode, IGMP snooping switch will periodically 
issue the Membership Query message to all hosts attached to 
it and gather the Membership report message to update the 
database of the Multicast table. By the way, this also reduces 
the unnecessary multicast traffic. 
 
Passive -   
In Passive Snooping mode, the IGMP snooping will not 
periodically poll the hosts in the groups. The switch will 
send a Membership Query message to all hosts only when it 
has received a Membership Query message from a router. 
Unknown Multicast: 
If the switch received multicast traffic from an IP multicast 
data source, but there is not any client to send IGMP report 
for the IGMP multicast registration on the switch. The IP 
multicast traffic without IGMP registration is unknown 
multicast. 
 
Flooding -  
If you set to flooding, the port received unknown multicast 
traffic will be forwarded to all other ports on the switch. 
 
Discard -  
If you set to discard, the port received unknown multicast 
traffic will be discarded. 
IP Address: 
Show all multicast groups IP addresses that are registered on 
this device. 
VLAN ID: 
Show VLAN ID for each multicast group. 
Member Port: 
Show member ports that join each multicast group. Member 
port may be only or more than one.

Function name:   
Allowed Group   
Function description: 
The allowed group function can limit the IGMP multicast group registration behavior on 
the switch. You can set some specific allowed IP multicast groups. If the switch received an 
IGMP report, but the IP multicast address is not included in the allowed IP multicast groups 
list, the switch will not do IGMP registration for this received IGMP report. The switch 
only accepts the IGMP report in the allowed group list, it must meet three parameters 
setting (IP Range, VID and Port members) then it can do IGMP registration successfully.
 
Parameter description: 
IP Range:   
Any -   
”Any” means allowed all of IP multicast address to do IGMP 
registration without limitation.
