Figure 228 IGMP snooping related ports
The following describes the ports involved in IGMP snooping:
• Router port—Layer 3 multicast device-side port. Layer 3 multicast devices include designated
routers and IGMP queriers. In
1/0/1 of Switch B are router ports. A switch records all its local router ports in its router port list.
Do not confuse the "router port" in IGMP snooping with the "routed interface" commonly known as
the "Layer 3 interface." The router port in IGMP snooping is the Layer 2 interface.
Member port—Multicast receiver-side port. In
•
GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 of Switch A and GigabitEthernet 1/0/2 of Switch B are member ports. A
switch records all its member ports in the IGMP snooping forwarding table.
Unless otherwise specified, router ports and member ports in this document include both dynamic and
static ports.
NOTE:
When IGMP snooping is enabled, all ports that receive PIM hello messages or IGMP general queries with
the source addresses other than 0.0.0.0 are considered dynamic router ports.

Description
When a port receives an
IGMP general query with the
source address other than
0.0.0.0 or PIM hello message,
the switch starts or resets an
aging timer for the port. When
the timer expires, the dynamic
router port ages out.
