Dale,

Yes I believe they do support multicast. In fact these are the same switches
on which the HSRP was working previously!

BTW there is a typo in the config below. On the Primary router's Int e0/0
the statement 
standby ip 45.10.2.200 should be standby ip 10.10.2.200 - oops.

Regards,

Paul.

Do your switches support multicast?
