Troubleshooting IGMP
Snooping
Configuration
Switch Fails in Layer 2
Multicast Forwarding
Symptom
A switch fails to implement Layer 2 multicast forwarding.
Analysis
IGMP Snooping is not enabled.
Solution
1 Enter the display current-configuration command to view the running status of
IGMP Snooping.
2 If IGMP Snooping is not enabled, use the igmp-snooping command to enable
IGMP Snooping globally and then use igmp-snooping enable command to
enable IGMP Snooping in VLAN view.
3 If IGMP Snooping is disabled only for the corresponding VLAN, just use the
igmp-snooping enable command in VLAN view to enable IGMP Snooping in the
corresponding VLAN.
Configured Multicast
Group Policy Fails to
Take Effect
Symptom
Although a multicast group policy has been configured to allow hosts to join
specific multicast groups, the hosts can still receive multicast data addressed to
other multicast groups.
Analysis
■ The ACL rule is incorrectly configured.
■ The multicast group policy is not applied.
■ The function of dropping unknown multicast data is not enabled, so unknown
multicast data is broadcast.
■ Certain ports have been configured as static member ports of multicasts
groups, and this configuration conflicts with the configured multicast group
policy.
