Specifying the IGMP Leave-Query Type

You can specify the IGMP leave-query type to be used when a port receives a leave message from a host.
When you specify a MAC-based general query, a leave query is sent for the exact GDA, and the version 1
or 2 hosts that have at least one membership for a group using that GDA will respond. When you specify
a general query, the reports from all version 1 and 2 hosts for all groups are registered. You can also
specify the auto mode. If you specify auto mode, a group-specific query is sent if there are no version 1
hosts in the network and a general query is sent if there are version 1 hosts in the network. A
group-specific query provides faster network convergence.
By default, a MAC-based general query is sent when a port receives a leave message.
To specify the leave-query type, perform this task in privileged mode:

Step 1

IGMP Leave Query Type set to auto-mode
Console> (enable) show igmp leave-query-type
