What do people do in general on switches and routers that feed Access-Points?
At the moment we do not have Multicast Enable, but we plan to change that very soon trying to limit broadcasting issues with Itunes, IAPP and other multicasting applications. We plan to add IGMP snooping to all switches that have APs and turn PIM sparse on our Wireless VLANs. We came to the conclusion that we can only win from doing this. A few things: -If someone sources Multicast on Wireless it will be bad with or without multicast -Be carefull, do not turm PIM sparse on VLANs before you have IGMP snooping ON on switches Has anyone experienced otherwise?
