The command 'emulates' the client. If you want to have fun with your
lab partner have your partner explain the communication, if any, between
a multicast server and a router ;-)

Subject: igmp join-group

I have just started labbing I've hit the MCAST section and I'm arguing
over an issue with my lab partner. Please clear it up for me. Does the
IGMP JOIN-GROUP command emulate a mcast server (like he says!) or does
it represent a client request to join the group (Like I say!) I thought
that a ping from the other end of the network represented a server.
