Chapter14 Configuring IGMP Snooping and MVR
Configuring IGMP Snooping
This example shows how to configure IGMP snooping to use CGMP packets as the learning method:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# ip igmp snooping vlan 1 mrouter learn cgmp
Switch(config)# end
To return to the default learning method, use the no ip igmp snooping vlan vlan-id mrouter learn cgmp
global configuration command.
Configuring a Multicast Router Port
To add a multicast router port (add a static connection to a multicast router), use the ip igmp snooping
vlan mrouter global configuration command on the switch.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable a static connection to a multicast
router:
To remove a multicast router port from the VLAN, use the no ip igmp snooping vlan vlan-id mrouter
interface interface-id global configuration command.
This example shows how to enable a static connection to a multicast router and verify the configuration:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# ip igmp snooping vlan 200 mrouter interface gigabitethernet0/17
Switch(config)# end
Configuring a Host Statically to Join a Group
Hosts or Layer 2 ports normally join multicast groups dynamically, but you can also statically configure
a host on an interface.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to add a Layer 2 port as a member of a multicast
group:
Command Purpose
Step1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step2 ip igmp snooping vlan vlan-id mrouter
interface interface-id
Specify the multicast router VLAN ID and specify the interface
to the multicast router. The VLAN ID range is 1 to 4094.
Step3 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step4 show ip igmp snooping mrouter [vlan vlan-id] Verify that IGMP snooping is enabled on the VLAN interface.
Step5 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
Command Purpose
Step1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode
Step2 ip igmp snooping vlan vlan-id static
mac-address interface interface-id
Statically configure a Layer 2 port as a member of a multicast
group:
•vlan-id is the multicast group VLAN ID.
•mac-address is the group MAC address.
•interface-id is the member port.
