Hi,

For query1: Why do you want to drop the packet? In snooping case ideally you
should not be dropping the packet. I dont see any reason why this valid
packet should be dropped until and unless there are any implementation
constraints. If you drop this packet router may not forward the streams for
G1, it will not stop streaming for G2 and for G3 it may stop streaming if
its timers dont get refreshed. So ideally it should be forwarded.

For Query2: In this case the leave will be entertained and the other hosts
may not get the streams since you stop forwarding the streams. So how to
solve this one? If fastleave is enabled then only one host should be there
on that interface else dont configure fastleave.
