Adjusting Query and Response Timers

The querier periodically sends a general query to discover which multicast groups are active. A group must
have at least one host to be active. When a host receives a query, it does not respond immediately, but
rather starts a delay timer. The delay time is set to a random value between 0 and the Maximum Response
Time. The host sends a response when the timer expires; in version 2, if another host responds before the
timer expires, the timer is nullified, and no response is sent.
The Maximum Response Time is the amount of time that the querier waits for a response to a query before
taking further action. The querier advertises this value in the query (refer to the illustration in
version 2). Lowering this value decreases leave latency but increases response burstiness since all host
membership reports must be sent before the Maximum Response Time expires. Inversely, increasing this
value decreases burstiness at the expense of leave latency.
• Adjust the period between queries using the command
• Adjust the Maximum Response Time using the command
INTERFACE mode.
When the querier receives a leave message from a host, it sends a group-specific query to the subnet. If no
response is received, it sends another. The amount of time that the querier waits to receive a response to the
initial query before sending a second one is the Last Member Query Interval (LMQI). The switch waits one
LMQI after the second query before removing the group from the state table.
• Adjust the Last Member Query Interval using the command
INTERFACE mode.
