3Com Switch 8800 Configuration Guide Chapter 24 IGMP Snooping Configuration
24-5
Table 24-1 Enabling/Disabling IGMP Snooping
Operation Command
Enable/disable IGMP Snooping igmp-snooping { enable | disable }
By default, IGMP Snooping is disabled.
Caution:
z Although layer 2 and layer 3 multicast protocols can be configured in pair, they
cannot run on the same VLAN or its corresponding VLAN interface at the same time.
For example, if PIM or IGMP is enabled on a VLAN, then IGMP Snooping cannot
operate on this VLAN.
z IGMP Snooping functions only when it is enabled both in system view and in VLAN
view. Otherwise, IGMP Snooping does not take effect.
24.2.2 Configuring Router Port Aging Time
This task is to manually configure the router port aging time. If the switch has not
received any general query message from the router before the router port is aged, it
will remove the port from all MAC multicast groups.
Perform the following configuration in system view.
Table 24-2 Configuring router port aging time
Operation Command

Restore the default aging time undo igmp-snooping router-aging-time
By default, the port aging time is 105s.
24.2.3 Configuring Maximum Response Time
This task is to manually configure the maximum response time. If the Ethernet switch
receives no report message from a port in the maximum response time, it will remove
the port from the multicast group.
Perform the following configuration in system view.
