[c-nsp] igmp snooping inside 802.1q trunks

The swich is working on "Flooding" mode (default state on Cisco
switches). You should go to "Non-flooding" mode. If not, IGMP snooping
has no effect.

Are you seeing snooping entries for the MAC? 0100.5e40.00xx (sh mac- 
multi igmp) If so, what is the port mask? You are sure it is 
239.192.0.x & not 239.128.0.x? The latter would map to a reserved 
range MAC, & we won't install a snooping mac entry for it, it will
flood....
