5.11. IGMP Snooping
This Series product acts as a Layer 2 device when it is configured as
Switch mode. However, IGMP Snooping implementation on AP is a little
bit different than that of standard Layer 2 Switch.
Typically, IGMP Snooping allows a switch to only forward multicast
traffic to the links that have at least one client joined the multicast
group. Unlike ordinary IGMP Snooping implementation, this series
converts multicast to unicast and delivers them to devices registered
with the multicast group.
When IGMP Snooping is turned on, multicast packets should be
dropped at the WLAN exit if there is no client from the WLAN who has
joined the corresponding multicast group.
