they will compare the IP address of the interface received the query packet with
the IP address of the interface sent the query packet. Router with the minimum IP
address in the subnet is selected as Querier. Other routers become
Non-Queriers.
All Non-Queriers start an Other Querier Present Interval timer, which will
reconfigure as long as it receives query packet from Querier. If the timer is timeout,
this indicates that a new round of election has started. All routers become
Queriers again.
For related commands, see igmp timer query.
Example
# Configure the timeout time of the subnet Querier as 300 seconds.
