Switch 7700 Configuration Guide

IGMP Configuration 125
Limit ing Access to IP Multicast Groups
A multicast router learns whether there are members of a multicast group on the
network via the received IGMP membership message. A filter can be set on an
interface to limit the range of allowed multicast groups.
Perform the following configuration in VLAN-interface view.
By default, no filter is configured. All multicast groups are allowed on the
interface.
Configuring the IGMP Query Message Interval
Multicast routers send IGMP query messages to find present multicast groups on
other networks. Multicast routers send query messages periodically to refresh their
information of members present.
Perform the following configuration in VLAN interface view.
When there are multiple multicast routers on a network segment, the querier is
responsible for sending IGMP query messages to all hosts on the LAN.
The default interval is 60 seconds.
Select the IGMP Version
Perform the following configuration in VLAN interface view.
By default, the router uses IGMP Version 2, which allows such features as the
IGMP query timeout time and the maximum query response time.
CAUTION: All routers on the subnet should support the same IGMP version.
