Specifying An Igmp Version - HP FlexNetwork 7500 Series Configuration Manual

Specifying an IGMP version

For IGMP to operate correctly, you must specify the same IGMP version for all routers on the same
subnet.
To specify an IGMP version:
Step
Enter system view.
1.
Enter interface view.
2.
Specify an IGMP version.

Configuring a static group member
You can configure an interface as a static group member of a multicast group. The interface can
always receive multicast data addressed to the specified multicast group.
A static group member does not respond to IGMP queries. When you complete or cancel this
configuration on an interface, the interface does not send an unsolicited IGMP report or leave
message. This is because the interface is not a real member host of the multicast group.
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
The interface to be configured as a static group member has the following restrictions:
•
If the interface is IGMP and PIM-SM enabled, it must be a PIM-SM DR.
•
If the interface is IGMP enabled but not PIM-SM enabled, it must be an IGMP querier.
For more information about PIM-SM and DR, see

Configuring a multicast group policy
This feature enables an interface to filter IGMP reports by using an ACL that specifies multicast
groups and the optional sources. It is used to control the multicast groups that the hosts attached to
an interface can join.
