Max Response Time (10-25 sec): The Max Response Time specifies the maximum allowed time before sending a responding report. Adjusting this setting effects the "leave latency", or the time between the moment the last host leaves a group and when the routing protocol is notified that there are no more members. It also allows adjustments for controlling the frequency of IGMP traffic on a subnet. Default is 10 seconds.
Robustness Variable (1-255 sec): The Robustness Variable allows adjustment for the expected packet loss on a subnet. If a subnet is expected to be lossy, the Robustness Variable may be increased. The Robustness Variable can not be set zero, and SHOULD NOT be one. Default is 2 seconds.
Last Member Query Interval (1-25 sec): The Last Member Query Interval is the Max Response Time inserted into Group-Specific Queries sent in response to Leave Group messages, and is also the amount of time between Group-Specific Query messages. This value may be adjusted to modify the "leave latency" of the network. A reduced value results in reduced time to detect the loss of the last member of a group. Default is 1 second.
Host Timeout (130-1225 sec): This is the interval after which a learnt host port entry will be purged. For each host port learnt, a 'PortPurgeTimer' runs for 'HostPortPurgeInterval'. This timer will be restarted whenever a report message from host is received over that port. If no report messages are received for 'HostPortPurgeInterval' time, the learnt host entry will be purged from the multicast group. Default is 260 seconds.
Router Timeout (60-600 sec): This is the interval after which a learnt router port entry will be purged. For each router port learnt, a 'RouterPortPurgeTimer' runs for 'RouterPortPurgeInterval'. This timer will be restarted whenever a router control message is received over that port. If no router control messages are received for
