IGMP Proxy

actively filters IGMP packets in order to reduce load on the multicast router

The switch is trying to ensure the router only has a single report for the group,
regardless of how many active listeners there are.

IGMP snooping

A layer 2 optimization for the layer 3 IGMP.

IGMP snooping takes place internally on switches and is not a protocol feature.

A switch will, by default, flood multicast traffic to all the ports in a broadcast domain

IGMP snooping is designed to prevent hosts on a local network from receiving traffic for a multicast group they have not explicitly joined.

a mechanism to prune multicast traffic from links that do not contain a multicast listener (an IGMP client)
