Hi Sudhanshu,

Yes you should learn mrouter port via Query and PIM Hello even when IGMP(PIM) and snooping are both enabled. The learnt mrouter ports should only be used for forwarding control packets and not data packets. If only IGMP Snooping is enabled then we should forward data on mrouter ports.

Thanks,

Indranil

Hi,
If we have enabled both IGMP and IGMP snooping, and we receive query from a neighbor, should we always create the dynamic mrouter(since snooping is enabled).

Thanks,

Sudhanshu
