	DES-3326S Layer 3 Fast Ethernet Switch User’s Guide
Join/Prune	This field allows an entry of between
Interval <60 >	0 and 18724 seconds. This interval
	also determines the time interval the
	router uses to automatically remove
	prune information from a branch of a
	multicast delivery tree and begin to
	flood multicast messages to all
	branches of that delivery tree. These
	two actions are equivalent. The
	default is 60 seconds.
State <Disabled>	This field can be toggled between
	Enabled and Disabled using the pull-
	down menu, and is used to enable or
	disable PIM-DM for the IP interface.
	The default is Disabled.

Static Router Port Settings

A static router port is a port that has a multicast router attached to it. Generally, this router would have a connection to a WAN or to the Internet. Establishing a router port will allow multicast packets coming from the router to be propagated through the network, as well as allowing multicast messages (IGMP) coming from the network to be propagated to the router.

A router port has the following behavior:

•All IGMP Report packets will be forwarded to the router port.

•IGMP queries (from the router port) will be flooded to all ports.
