IGMP Snooping Commands
FTOS supports IGMP Snooping version 2 and 3 on all Dell Networking systems.
Important Points to Remember for IGMP Snooping
• FTOS supports version 1, version 2, and version 3 hosts.
• FTOS IGMP snooping implementation is based on IP multicast address (not based on Layer 2 multicast
mac address) and the IGMP snooping entries are in Layer 3 flow table not in Layer 2 forwarding
information base (FIB).
• FTOS IGMP snooping implementation is based on draft-ietf-magma-snoop-10.
• FTOS supports IGMP snooping on JUMBO-enabled cards.
• IGMP snooping is not enabled by default on the switch.
• A maximum of 1800 groups and 600 VLAN are supported.
• IGMP snooping is not supported on a default VLAN interface.
• IGMP snooping is not supported over VLAN-Stack-enabled VLAN interfaces (you must disable IGMP
snooping on a VLAN interface before configuring VLAN-Stack-related commands).
• IGMP snooping does not react to Layer 2 topology changes triggered by spanning tree protocol (STP).
• IGMP snooping reacts to Layer 2 topology changes multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP) triggers by
sending a general query on the interface that comes in the FWD state.
Important Points to Remember for IGMP Querier
• The IGMP snooping Querier supports version 2.
• You must configure an IP address to the VLAN interface for IGMP snooping Querier to begin. The
IGMP snooping Querier disables itself when a VLAN IP address is cleared, and then it restarts itself
when an IP address is reassigned to the VLAN interface.
