Multimedia Traffic Control with IP Multicast (IGMP)
How IGMP Operates

Age-Out IGMP group addresses when the last Yes

group.

Requires that another IGMP device in the VLAN has an IP
address and can operate as Querier. This can be a
multicast router or another switch configured for IGMP
operation. (ProCurve recommends that the VLAN also
include a device operating as a backup Querier in case
the device operating as the primary Querier fails for any
reason.

Automatic Fast-Leave IGMP
IGMP Operation Presents a “Delayed Leave” Problem.
Where multiple
IGMP clients are connected to the same port on an IGMP device (switch or
router), if only one IGMP client joins a given multicast group, then later sends
a Leave Group message and ceases to belong to that group, the IGMP device
retains that IGMP client in its IGMP table and continues forwarding IGMP
traffic to the IGMP client until the Querier triggers confirmation that no other
group members exist on the same port. This means that the switch continues
to transmit unnecessary multicast traffic through the port until the Querier
renews the multicast group status.
Fast-Leave IGMP.
Depending on the switch model, Fast-Leave is enabled
or disabled in the default configuration.
