Multicast Traffic Management in Hyper-V and SCVMM

I have a question regarding the management of multicast traffic in a Hyper-V environment. I've been researching how multicast works with virtual switches and the role of IGMP snooping.

From what I understand, multicast traffic is primarily managed at the switch level through IGMP snooping, rather than being directly managed by Hyper-V or SCVMM. Is this correct? Can someone confirm whether the effective management of multicast traffic relies more on the configuration of physical network switches rather than on Hyper-V or SCVMM settings?

Additionally, if there are any specific configurations I should be aware of in Hyper-V or SCVMM to ensure proper multicast functionality, I would appreciate your insights!
