Assigning a Multicast Group to an Interface

You can assign an interface to send and receive all traffic for a particular multicast group. This feature enables you to control the IGMP traffic and to test the behavior of multicast protocols in the network.

ip igmp static-group

• Use to send and receive all traffic for a multicast group from a specific interface.
• The interface sets no timers for this group.
• Example

  host1:boston(config-if)#ip igmp static-group 225.1.2.3

• Use the no version to stop the interface from sending all traffic for the group.
• See ip igmp static-group.
