Trying to enable igmp snooping on a 3500XL 12.0(5) switch.
when I enter ip igmp snooping, I get invalid input.
When I enter ip igmp ?, I get ambiguous command.
When I enter ip igmp, I get incomplete command. (!)
When I enter sh ip igmp snooping, I get invalid input.
It doesn't recognize snooping...

Hi:
That's what I did. I was in config mode.
Gives me invalid input at "snooping"

What type of image do you have EMI or SMI? Check by doing a show version

Really. I've been instructed to turn on multicasting throughout the network. I've got the 6506 and 6509 multicast enabled. What good will it do if I can't do igmp snooping on the switches? They are all 3500 or 3500XL. Just got in some 2960s. Any work arounds without replacing equipment?
