Configuring IGMP Snooping Querier

Configuration Prerequisites

Before configuring IGMP Snooping querier, complete the following task:
Enable IGMP Snooping in the VLAN.
Before configuring IGMP Snooping querier, prepare the following data:
IGMP general query interval,
IGMP last-member query interval,
Maximum response time to IGMP general queries,
Source address of IGMP general queries, and
Source address of IGMP group-specific queries.

Enabling IGMP Snooping Querier

In an IP multicast network running IGMP, a multicast router or Layer 3 multicast switch is responsible
for sending IGMP general queries, so that all Layer 3 multicast devices can establish and maintain
multicast forwarding entries, thus to forward multicast traffic correctly at the network layer. This router
or Layer 3 switch is called IGMP querier.
However, a Layer 2 multicast switch does not support IGMP, and therefore cannot send general
queries by default. By enabling IGMP Snooping on a Layer 2 switch in a VLAN where multicast traffic
needs to be Layer-2 switched only and no multicast routers are present, the Layer 2 switch will act as
the IGMP Snooping querier to send IGMP queries, thus allowing multicast forwarding entries to be
established and maintained at the data link layer.
Follow these steps to enable IGMP Snooping querier:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter VLAN view
Enable IGMP Snooping querier
Use the command...
system-view
interface interface-type interface-number
port-group manual port-group-name
igmp-snooping fast-leave [ vlan vlan-list ]
Use the command...
system-view
vlan vlan-id
