group, the router or switch (correctly) responds by sending out a Query message

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

over that interface. In the default configuration, it also sends a second Query

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

message one second later, for redundancy. Previously, if the router or switch

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

interface was deleted after the first Query but before the second Query, the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

router or switch rebooted.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved. If the interface is deleted, the router or switch no
