for various multimedia applications, you can use the switch to reduce unnecessary bandwidth usage on a per-port basis by configuring IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol controls). In the factory default state (IGMP disabled), the switch simply floods all IP multicast traffic it receives on - HP 6120XG | HP ProCurve Series 6120 Blade Switches Multicast and Routing Guide - Page 23
Note IGMP configuration on the switches covered in this guide operates at the VLAN context level. If you are not using VLANs, then configure IGMP in VLAN 1 (the default VLAN) context.

. The switches support Data-Driven IGMP ("Smart" IGMP), and Fast-Leave is enabled in the default configuration. They Connected to only one end node 2. The end node currently belongs to a multicast group; i.e. is an IGMP client 3.

-Leave does not operate on port A6. Default (Enabled) IGMP Operation Solves the "Delayed Leave" Problem. Fast-leave IGMP is enabled by default. When Fast-leave is disabled and multiple IGMP clients are connected to the same port on an IGMP device (switch or router), if only one IGMP client joins - HP 6120XG | HP ProCurve Series 6120 Blade Switches Multicast and Routing Guide - Page 35
switch port that is connected to multiple end nodes. (This feature does not activate on ports where the switch detects only one end node).
