Table 18 IGMP Configuration Commands (continued)

Command

Description

 

 

config igmp snooping timer

Configures the IGMP snooping timers. Timers

<router_timeout> <host_timeout>

should be set to approximately 2.5 times the

 

router query interval in use on the network.

 

Specify the following:

 

router_timeout — The interval, in

 

seconds, between the last time the router was

 

discovered and the current time. The range is

 

10 to 2,147,483,647 seconds (68 years). The

 

default setting is 260 seconds.

 

host_timeout — The interval, in seconds,

 

between the last IGMP group report message

 

from the host and the current time. The range

 

is 10 to 2,147,483,647 seconds (68 years). The

 

default setting is 260 seconds.

show igmp snooping {<vlan <name>}

Displays IGMP snooping registration information,

 

and a summary of all IGMP timers and states.

disable igmp {vlan <name>}

Disables IGMP processing. No IGMP query is

 

generated, but the switch continues to respond to

 

IGMP queries received from other devices. If no

 

VLAN is specified, IGMP is disabled on all

 

interfaces.

disable igmp snooping

Disables IGMP snooping. IGMP snooping can be

 

disabled only if IP multicast routing is not being

 

used. Disabling IGMP snooping allows all IGMP

 

and IP multicast traffic to flood within a given

 

VLAN.

clear igmp snooping {vlan <name>}

Removes one or all IGMP snooping entries.

 

 

Types of VLANs

The switch supports a maximum of 256 VLANs. VLANs can be created

 

according to the following criteria:

 

Physical port

 

802.1Q tag

 

Ethernet, LLC SAP, or LLC/SNAP Ethernet protocol type

 

A combination of these criteria

Port-Based VLANs

In a port-based VLAN, a VLAN name is given to a group of one or more

 

ports on the switch. A port can be a member of only one port-based

 

VLAN.
