IGMP Snooping
– toggling this option to
On
enables the Netopia Router to “listen in” to IGMP traffic. The
Router discovers multicast group membership for the purpose of restricting multicast transmissions to only
those por ts which have requested them. This helps to reduce overall network traffic from streaming media
and other bandwidth-intensive IP multicast applications.
•
Robustness
– a way of indicating how sensitive to lost packets the network is. IGMP can recover from
robustness minus 1 lost IGMP packet. The default value is 2.
•
Query Interval(s)
– the amount of time in seconds between IGMP General Quer y messages sent by the
querier router. The default quer y inter val is 125 seconds.
•
Query Response Interval (deci-sec)
– the maximum amount of time in tenths of a second that the IGMP
router waits to receive a response to a General Quer y message. The default quer y response inter val is 10
seconds and must be less than the quer y inter val.
•
Unsolicited Report Interval(s)
– the amount of time in seconds between repetitions of a par ticular
computer’s initial repor t of membership in a group. The default unsolicited repor t inter val is 10 seconds.
•
IGMP Querier Version
– select a version of the IGMP Querier from the pop-up menu:
v1
,
v2
or
v3
. If you
know you will be communicating with other hosts that are limited to v1 or v2, for backward compatibility,
select accordingly; other wise, allow the default v3.
If you have upgraded from earlier firmware versions, and had previously selected v2, v3 will be the new
default.
Note:
IGMP Querier version is relevant only if the router is configured for IGMP for warding. If any IGMP v1
routers are present on the subnet, the querier
must
use IGMP v1. The use of IGMP v1 must be administratively
configured, since there is no reliable way of dynamically determining whether IGMP v1 routers are present on a
network. IGMP for warding is enabled per IP Profile and WAN Connection Profile.
See
“Multicast For warding” on page 7-33
for more information.
If you chose IGMP Querier Version v2 or v3, select
V2/V3 Settings
, and press Return.
