IGMP Snooping Configuration

The IGMP Snooping Configuration allows you to set up IGMP snooping. IGMP snooping is used to monitor for any attached hosts who want to receive a specific multicast service. It looks up the IP Multicast Group used for this service and adds any port that received a similar request to that group.

IGMP Status* - If enabled, the Switch will monitor network traffic to determine which hosts want to receive multicast traffic.

IGMP Router Timeout - A switch port that stops receiving multicast pro- tocol packets for this interval will be removed from the IGMP forwarding list. The range is 3-5 minutes.

IGMP Group Timeout - The time between last spotting an IGMP Report message for an IP multicast address on a specific port and the Switch removing that entry from its list. The range is 3-5 minutes.

Act as IGMP Querier* - If enabled, the Switch will query other devices in regards to IGMP.

* These options are not available when the Switch is in multilayer mode.

Select Apply to make changes. Select OK to return to the previous panel. Select Cancel to cancel any changes.
