That's not really the critical thing, so much as - you need an IGMP querier active in the VLAN in order for snooping to work correctly/reliably. Some applications may behave fine without; others won't. The key is periodic joins from the hosts are required to maintain membership state for snooping. The querier ensures that happens.

So what you really need is an SVI *with* an IP address for that vlan, and then enable igmp snooping querier for that vlan. The configured IP is used to source queries. The SVI in this case can actually be shutdown, it doesn't really matter.

The config is like:
int vlan 200
 ip add 10.1.1.1/24
 ip igmp snooping querier
 shut

The other option is to just enable PIM on the (admin up) SVI in the vlan, but you may not want to do that, depends on the network design.

int vlan 200
 ip add 10.1.1.1/24
 ip pim sparse
 no shut

HTH,

Creating an unnumbered interface didn't seems to work. Now I am trying your solution, the one with "ip igmp snooping querier". I don't want to involve the switches in any multicast routing.
