Setting The Maximum Number Of Igmp Groups; Configuring The Igmp Throttling Action - Cisco IE 3000 Software Configuration Manual

Configuring IGMP Filtering and Throttling
To remove a profile from an interface, use the no ip igmp filter profile number interface configuration
command.
This example shows how to apply IGMP profile 4 to a port:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/2
Switch(config-if)# ip igmp filter 4
Switch(config-if)# end

Setting the Maximum Number of IGMP Groups

You can set the maximum number of IGMP groups that a Layer 2 interface can join by using the ip igmp
max-groups interface configuration command. Use the no form of this command to set the maximum
back to the default, which is no limit.
You can use this command on a logical EtherChannel interface but cannot use it on ports that belong to
an EtherChannel port group.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to set the maximum number of IGMP groups in
the forwarding table:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2 interface interface-id
Step 3
ip igmp max-groups number
Step 4 end
Step 5 show running-config interface
interface-id
Step 6 copy running-config startup-config
To remove the maximum group limitation and return to the default of no maximum, use the no ip igmp
max-groups interface configuration command.
This example shows how to limit to 25 the number of IGMP groups that a port can join.
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/2
Switch(config-if)# ip igmp max-groups 25
Switch(config-if)# end

Configuring the IGMP Throttling Action

After you set the maximum number of IGMP groups that a Layer 2 interface can join, you can configure
an interface to replace the existing group with the new group for which the IGMP report was received
by using the ip igmp max-groups action replace interface configuration command. Use the no form of
this command to return to the default, which is to drop the IGMP join report.

21-26
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Specify the interface to be configured, and enter interface configuration
mode. The interface can be a Layer 2 port that does not belong to an
EtherChannel group or a EtherChannel interface.
Set the maximum number of IGMP groups that the interface can join.
The range is 0 to 4294967294. The default is to have no maximum set.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify the configuration.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
