If enabled, the switch will serve as querier if elected. The querier is
•
responsible for asking hosts if they want to receive multicast traffic.
An IPv6 address must be configured on the VLAN interface from which
•
the querier will act if elected. When serving as the querier, the switch
uses its own IPv6 address as the query source address.
The querier will not start or will disable itself after having started if it
•
detects an IPv6 multicast router on the network.
