I would consider IGMP SNOOPING, assuming that the network is strictly L2
(VLAN shared between the switches). 3550/3560/3750 have IGMP snooping
enabled by default, since it is done on a hardware level. You might need
to enable it on 2950.
Here are some useful "sh" commands:
*********************************************************
CAT2#sh ip igmp snooping groups
Vlan Group Version Port List
---------------------------------------------------------
1 224.0.1.40 v2 Fa0/5
1 231.231.231.231v2 Fa0/5
**********************************************************
CAT2#sh mac-address-table multicast igmp-snooping
Vlan Mac Address Type Ports
---- ----------- ---- -----
1 0100.5e00.0128 IGMP Fa0/3, Fa0/5
1 0100.5e67.e7e7 IGMP Fa0/3, Fa0/5
