An administrator is investigating reports of network congestion on their NC2 deployment.

Enable IGMP snooping on the AHV hosts:

IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) snooping is a feature that listens to IGMP traffic between hosts and routers. By enabling IGMP snooping on the AHV (Acropolis Hypervisor) hosts, the switch can intelligently forward multicast traffic only to the ports that have requested it.

This reduces unnecessary multicast traffic on the network and prevents congestion by ensuring that multicast packets are only delivered to the appropriate endpoints.

Refer to the Nutanix documentation on network configuration and best practices for managing multicast traffic.
