because all multicast source and destination are under same vlan, the
multicast host report message can arrive to multicast source. So it should
work.

Hi GS,

I have a question & I'm hoping
someone can correct me or point in the appropriate direction.

This is the
scenario

SW1------SW2-----SW3----SW4

I have 10.10.10.0/24 address space
assigned to hosts in vlan 1O on a all the switches. There is a multicast
source also in the same vlan sending traffic to address 225.5.5.5.

The
intended recipients of the multicast traffic are all in vlan 10. There are 4
switches all of which are 3550s. None of the swithces has an SVI in vlan 10
but have some in VLan 20,30, & 40 all in 10.10.X.0/24 (where x = vlan ID).
My question is without using an SVI at the very least will it be possible to
forward the multicast feed?

Personally I don't think it will ever work unless
a Layer 3 device is somehow involved but as with most things, I try to get
other people's opinion.

Thanks in advance
