ILTERING AND
THROTTLING FOR
INTERFACES
Use the Multicast > IGMP Snooping > Filter (Configure Interface) page to
assign and IGMP filter profile to interfaces on the switch, or to throttle
multicast traffic by limiting the maximum number of multicast groups an
interface can join at the same time.
COMMAND USAGE
◆ IGMP throttling sets a maximum number of multicast groups that a port
can join at the same time. When the maximum number of groups is
reached on a port, the switch can take one of two actions; either “deny”
or “replace.” If the action is set to deny, any new IGMP join reports will
be dropped. If the action is set to replace, the switch randomly
removes an existing group and replaces it with the new multicast
group.
