Internetwork lab 7 task 7.1 to 7.4

The IGMP Static-group command was configured on Vlan with the multicast
address 230.12.84.3. Should not this be configured on VLAN as question states
that the media server is located on vlan 4 and multicasting a video feed to
the address 230.12.84.3. Having not any real world experience with
multicasting I may be confused with the wording, but whatever I have read so
far it always occured to me that in a lab enviorment you could configure
igmp-join group to test the multicast application.

So the task states that host on vlan 4 can access to this feed, and I thought
that the group address 230.12.84.3 should be configured on vlan 4 as there
resides the media server.

Will the command IGMP-STATIC group allows to ping the group address or only
IGMP-JOIN group is pingable in order to test multicast in the lab enviorment?

Regards,

Ahmed
