Look next example:

Router A------ ethernet0/0------RouterB----ether0/1

Router A:

ip multicast-routing

interface Ethernet0/0
 description VLAN162_port_1
 ip address 172.16.2.1 255.255.255.0
 ip pim dense-mode

RouterB:

ip multicast-routing

interface Ethernet0/0
 description VLAN162-port3
 ip address 172.16.2.2 255.255.255.0
 ip pim dense-mode

interface Ethernet0/1
 description VLAN166-port4
 ip address 172.16.6.1 255.255.255.0
 ip pim dense-mode
 ip igmp join-group 239.2.2.8

Ping from router A:

C3620-A#ping 239.2.2.8

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 1, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 239.2.2.8, timeout is 2 seconds:

Reply to request 0 from 172.16.2.2, 8 ms

debug ip mpacket on router B

4d05h: IP: s=172.16.2.1 (Ethernet0/0) d=239.2.2.8 (Ethernet0/1) len 114,
mforward

show ip mroute on router B

(172.16.2.1, 239.2.2.8), 00:00:51/00:02:08, flags: CLT
  Incoming interface: Ethernet0/0, RPF nbr 0.0.0.0
  Outgoing interface list:
    Ethernet0/1, Forward/Dense, 00:00:51/00:00:00

As you can see, with ip pim join-group command data stream is forwarded over
the interface, so clients will receive it.

Regards

Rafa

"ip igmp join-group" places a specific router interface in a multicast
group, but not its attached clients.

Check out:

As mentioned before, "ip multicast helper-map" is what Oscar is looking for.
