Adjusting Query and Response Timers
The querier periodically sends a general query to discover which multicast groups are active. A group must have at least one host to be
active.
When a host receives a query, it does not respond immediately, but rather starts a delay timer. The delay time is set to a random value
between 0 and the maximum response time. The host sends a response when the timer expires; in version 2, if another host responds
before the timer expires, the timer is nullified, and no response is sent.
The maximum response time is the amount of time that the querier waits for a response to a query before taking further action. The querier
advertises this value in the query (refer to the illustration in
IGMP Version 2 ). Lowering this value decreases leave latency but increases
response burstiness because all host membership reports must be sent before the maximum response time expires. Inversely, increasing
this value decreases burstiness at the expense of leave latency.
When the querier receives a leave message from a host, it sends a group-specific query to the subnet. If no response is received, it sends
another. The amount of time that the querier waits to receive a response to the initial query before sending a second one is the last
member query interval (LMQI). The switch waits one LMQI after the second query before removing the group from the state table.
