Caution :
An IGMP-Snooping-enabled Ethernet switch judges whether the multicast group exists
when it receives an IGMP leave packet sent by a host in a multicast group. If this multicast
group does not exist, the switch will drop the IGMP leave packet instead of forwarding it.
10.4.5
Protocols and Standards
IGMP Snooping is documented in :
RFC 4541 : Considerations for Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) and Multicast Listener
Discovery (MLD) Snooping Switches
10.5 IGMP Snooping configuration
Use following command to control IGMP Snooping to establish the MAC address multicast transmission
table in layer 2.
Use following command in global configuration mode :
Enable IGMP Snooping
igmp-snooping
Disable IGMP Snooping
no igmp-snooping
By default, IGMP Snooping disables.
Display IGMP Snooping
Use following command in any mode to see IGMP Snooping :
For example :
! Display IGMP snooping information
QTECH(config)#show igmp-snooping
10.5.1
IGMP Snooping multicast interface aging time
configuration
Use following command in global configuration mode to configure host-aging-time dynamic multicast
group learnt by igmp-snooping :
igmp-snooping host-aging-time
Use following command to display host-aging-time dynamic multicast group learnt by igmp-snooping :
show igmp-snooping
For example :
! Configure host-aging-time of the dynamic multicast group learnt by igmp-snooping to be 10 seconds
QTECH(config)#igmp-snooping host-aging-time 10
