Maybe I should include the task, there could be an interputation issue
here...

5.2 Use the fa0/22 interface of SW4 to simulate a client for the group
239.1.2.3. Ensure this client responds to multicast packets sourced from R7.

If I'm on R7, and I ping 239.1.2.3 that would make R7 a source, and SW4 a
receiver of that group correct? I'll just stop rambling until I get a chance
to lab this up and play again... I get the impression that everyone here
thinks it should be too obvious ;)
