Configure IGMP general query
interval
igmp-snooping query-interval
interval
Optional
60 seconds by default
Configure the maximum response
time to IGMP general queries
igmp-snooping max-response-time
interval
Optional
10 seconds by default
Configure the IGMP last-member
query interval
igmp-snooping
last-member-query-interval
interval
Optional
1 second by default
CAUTION:
In the configuration, make sure that the IGMP general query interval is larger than the maximum
response time for IGMP general queries. Otherwise, multicast group members might be deleted by
mistake.
Configuring source IP address of IGMP queries
Upon receiving an IGMP query whose source IP address is 0.0.0.0 on a port, the switch does not
enlist that port as a dynamic router port. This might prevent multicast forwarding entries from being
correctly created at the data link layer and eventually cause multicast traffic forwarding to fail. To
avoid the aforesaid problem, when a Layer 2 device acts as an IGMP snooping querier, configure a
non-all-zero IP address as the source IP address of IGMP queries.
Follow these steps to configure source IP address of IGMP queries:

Configure the source address of
IGMP general queries
igmp-snooping general-query source-ip
{
ip-address
|
current-interface
}
Optional
0.0.0.0 by default
Configure the source IP address
of IGMP group-specific queries
igmp-snooping special-query source-ip
{
ip-address

current-interface
}
Optional
0.0.0.0 by default
CAUTION:
The source address of IGMP query messages might affect the IGMP querier election within the
segment.
