Host-Side Interfaces and IGMP Snooping Proxy Mode
No reports are sent on host-side interfaces by IGMP snooping in proxy mode. IGMP snooping processes reports received on these interfaces and sends group-specific queries onto host-side interfaces when it receives a leave message on the interface. Host-side interfaces do not generate periodic general queries, but forwards or floods general queries received from multicast-router interfaces.
If a group is removed from a host-side interface and this was the last host-side interface for that group, a leave is sent to the multicast-router interfaces. If a group report is received on a host-side interface and this was the first host-side interface for that group, a report is sent to all multicast-router interfaces.
