Step 2 ip igmp snooping send-query enable
Step 3 end
Step 4 show ip igmp snooping globals
Step 5 write startup-config
The "ip igmp snooping send-query disable" command configures the switch to not send
general IGMP queries when spanning tree topology changes
The example below shows the commands used to enable a switch to send general IGMP queries when
spanning tree topology changes.
Enable the switch to send general IGMP queries when spanning tree topology changes.
SMIS# configure terminal
SMIS(config)# ip igmp snooping send-query enable
SMIS(config)# end

Multicast Forwarding Mode

Multicast traffic can be forwarded based on either the destination multicast's MAC address or the its IP
address. When IGMP snooping is enabled, Supermicro switches forward multicast traffic based on the
destination MAC address. Users can change multicast forwarding to use the destination multicast's IP
address instead of its MAC address.
Follow the steps below to configure the switch to forward the multicast traffic based on the multicast's
group IP address.
Step Command
Step 1 configure terminal
Step 2 snooping multicast-forwarding-mode ip

Enables the switch to send general
IGMP queries when spanning tree
topology changes.
