This output shows a querier for VLAN 1 and 401 with their queries reaching the switch through
GigabitEthernet1/0/11:
Switch#
show ip igmp snooping querier
Vlan IP Address IGMP Version Port
-------------------------------------------------------------
1
1.1.1.1 v2 Gi1/0/11
401 41.41.41.1 v2 Gi1/0/11
This is output for the
show ip igmp snooping mrouter
command for VLAN 1 and 401:
Switch# show ip igmp snooping mrouter
Vlan ports
---- -----
1 Gi1/0/11(dynamic), Gi1/0/12(dynamic)
401 Gi1/0/11(dynamic), Gi1/0/12(dynamic)
Similarly, both the Flex Links ports are a part of the learned groups. In this example, GigabitEthernet2/0/11
is a receiver/host in VLAN 1, which is interested in two multicast groups:
Switch# show ip igmp snooping groups
Vlan Group Type Version Port List
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
1
228.1.5.1 igmp v2 Gi1/0/11, Gi1/0/12, Gi2/0/11
1 228.1.5.2 igmp v2 Gi1/0/11, Gi1/0/12, Gi2/0/11
Whenever a host responds to the general query, the switch forwards this report on all the mrouter ports. When
you turn on this feature through the command-line port, and when a report is forwarded by the switch on
GigabitEthernet1/0/11, it is also leaked to the backup port GigabitEthernet1/0/12. The upstream router learns
the groups and starts forwarding multicast data, which is dropped at the ingress because GigabitEthernet1/0/12
is blocked. When the active link, GigabitEthernet1/0/11, goes down, the backup port, GigabitEthernet1/0/12,
begins forwarding. You do not need to send any proxy reports as the multicast data is already being forwarded
by the upstream router. By leaking reports to the backup port, a redundant multicast path has been set up, and
the time taken for the multicast traffic convergence is very minimal.
