Explanation

Since all clients on Acc-1 are receiving the multicast stream, the switch is flooding multicast traffic like broadcast. To forward multicast traffic only to interested receivers, IGMP snooping must be enabled on the VLANs of Acc-1. IGMP snooping listens to IGMP join/leave messages and builds per-VLAN multicast forwarding tables, ensuring only subscribed ports receive the multicast traffic.
