Enabling IGMP snooping proxying

The IGMP snooping proxying function works on a per-VLAN basis. After you enable the function in a

VLAN, the device works as the IGMP snooping proxy for the downstream hosts and upstream router in

the VLAN.
Follow these steps to enable IGMP snooping proxying in a VLAN:
