In this lab activity, you will implement and verify the operations of IGMP and MLD as well as
observe multicast flooding on the LAN when IGMP snooping is implemented.
You will work on different Cisco routers that are running Cisco IOS (c2900), Cisco IOS XE
(asr1001) and Cisco IOS XR (asr9k) Software. After completing this activity, you will be able
to meet these objectives:
Configure IP multicast support and monitoring for IGMP and MLD
Monitor the network without and with IGMP snooping

Here is a quick little tutorial on Prefix-lists for you.
A normal access-list CANNOT check the subnet mask of a network. It can only check bits to make sure they match, nothing more. A prefix-list has an advantage over an access-list in that it CAN check BOTH bits and subnet mask - both would have to match for the network to be either permitted or denied.
For checking bits a prefix list ALWAYS goes from left to right and CANNOT skip any bits. A
