Multimedia Traffic Control with IP Multicast (IGMP)

CLI: Configuring and Displaying IGMP

Configuring IGMP Traffic Priority. This command allows you to prioritize IGMP traffic as either “high” or “normal” (the default).

Syntax: [no] vlan < vid > ip igmp high-priority-forward

Assigns “high” priority to IGMP traffic. The “no” form returns a high-priority setting to (the default) “normal” priority. (The switch services the traffic at its inbound priority.)

ProCurve(config)# vlan 1 ip igmp high-priority-forward

This example configures high priority for IGMP traffic on

VLAN 1.

ProCurve(vlan-1)# ip igmp high-priority-forward

Same as above command, but in the VLAN 1 context level.

ProCurve(vlan 1)# no ip igmp high-priority-forward

Returns IGMP traffic to “normal” priority.

ProCurve> show ip igmp config

Show command to display results of above high-priority commands.

Configuring the Querier Function. In its default configuration, the switch is capable of operating as an IGMP querier. This command lets you disable or re-enable this function.

Syntax: [no] vlan <vid> ip igmp querier

Disables or re-enables the ability for the switch to become querier, if necessary, on the specified VLAN. The default querier capability is “enabled”.

ProCurve(config)# no vlan 1 ip igmp querier

Disables the querier function on VLAN 1.

ProCurve> show ip igmp config

This is the show command used to display results of the above querier command.
