RE: basic multicast query

Dear Imran,
If both the server and client are on the same vlan, the multicast traffic from
server will reach client without doing anything. Ofcourse this will lead to
lot of braodcast in switched network.
One way to reduce is to use IGMP snooping where switches will find out where
the interested clients are and only forward on those ports.
Remember there is no need of S,G when client and server are in same vlan and
router has very limited role.

Akhilesh
