9.1.5 Querier Config

In an IP multicast network that runs IGMP, a Layer 3 multicast device works as an IGMP querier to
send IGMP queries and manage the multicast table. But IGMP is not supported by the devices in
Layer 2 network. IGMP Snooping Querier can act as an IGMP Router in Layer 2 network. It can
help to create and maintain multicast forwarding table on the switch with the Query messages it
generates.
Select the desired port as the static router port which is mainly
used in the network with stable topology.
