By default, a router joins no multicast group.

5.2.4 Limit Multicast Groups An Interface Can Access

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 so as to limit the range of allowed multicast groups.
Perform the following configuration in interface view.

By default, no filter is configured, that is, all multicast groups are allowed on the
interface.

5.2.5 Configure the Interval to Send IGMP Query Message

Multicast routers send IGMP query messages to discover which multicast groups are
present on attached networks. Multicast routers send query messages periodically to
refresh their knowledge of members present on their networks.
Perform the following configuration in 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.
