ensure that the downstream receiver hosts on the router interface can receive multicast data,
you must enable multicast forwarding on the interface. For more information, see "Enabling
multicast forwarding on a non-querier interface."

Enabling multicast forwarding on a non-querier interface
Typically, only IGMP queriers can forward multicast traffic and non-queriers cannot. This prevents
multicast data from being repeatedly forwarded. If a router interface on an IGMP proxy device failed
in the querier election, enable multicast forwarding on the interface to forward multicast data to
attached receiver hosts.
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
A shared-media network might have multiple MLD proxies, including one proxy acting as a querier.
To avoid duplicate multicast traffic, do not enable multicast forwarding on any of the non-querier MLD
proxies for the network.

Configuring multicast load splitting on an IGMP proxy
This feature enables all proxy interfaces on an IGMP proxy device to share multicast traffic on a
per-group basis.
