I've never come across one. When it first came out there was a brief list but not kept up with.

Generally Cisco switches tend to work with it. I believe it was tested with Catalyst 6000/6500 series switches but never seen an updated list.

Nokia doesn't seem to have one from when I asked our Nokia Technical Account Manager.

I've had better luck with Cisco layer 2 switches, vs Cisco layer 3 switches. The layer 3 switches have, in the past, stopped forwarding the multicast packets at odd, nonpredictable times.
