RE: basic multicast query

Dear Imran,
Yes. But then what the switch is doing is broadcasting to all the ports. If
the traffic is negligibal then you dont need to do anything.
If there are more clients and huge multicast traffic on LAN then have IGMP
snooping enabled on switches and have PIM /IGMP configured on router SVI
interface.
