GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 andGigabitEthernet 1/0/5 on Switch C are required to be configured as static member ports formulticast group 224.1.1.1 to enhance the reliability of multicast traffic transmission.z Suppose STP runs on the network. To avoid data loops, the forwarding path from Switch A toSwitch C is blocked under normal conditions, and multicast traffic flows to the receivers attached toSwitch C only along the path of Switch A—Switch B—Switch C.z It is required to configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 that connects Switch A to Switch C as a staticrouter port, so that multicast traffic can flow to the receivers nearly uninterruptedly along the path ofSwitch A—Switch C in the case that the path of Switch A—Switch B—Switch C gets blocked.If no static router port is configured, when the path of Switch A—Switch B—Switch C gets blocked, atleast one IGMP query-response cycle must be completed before the multicast data can flow to thereceivers along the new path of Switch A—Switch C, namely multicast delivery will be interrupted duringthis process.
