IGMP Snooping
relates to the protocol IGMP. IGMP enables routers to
create lists of devices that are members of multicast groups. A multicast
group might consist of all users that want to see the company yearly meeting
on video. Video is a multicast application. IGMP Snooping enables the
switch to monitor the flow of queries from the devices and the routers. IGMP
Snooping improves the switch's performance by restricting the flow of
multicast packets to only those switch ports, which have devices receiving the
multicast (video).

IGMP Snooping Table Aging Time
is the time the switch will maintain its
multicast group(s). The time controls how frequently the switch expects to
see information from devices that want to stay members of multicast groups
and process leaving requests.
