DESCRIPTION

IGMP Snooping

Use this to enable or disable IGMP snooping.

 

When IGMP is enabled, the MES-2110 forwards group multicast

 

traffic only to ports that are members of that group.

 

 

IGMP VLAN Mode

Select Auto to have the MES-2110 learn multicast group

 

membership information of any VLANs automatically.

 

Select Fixed to have the MES-2110 only learn multicast group

 

membership information of the VLAN(s) that you specify below.

 

 

IGMP Query Mode

Specifies whether or not the port is an IGMP query port. The MES-

 

2110 forwards IGMP join or leave frames to an IGMP query port,

 

treating the port as being connected to an IGMP multicast router

 

(or server). You must enable IGMP snooping as well.

 

Select Auto to have the MES-2110 use the port as an IGMP query

 

port if the port received IGMP query frames recently. An auto port

 

doesn’t forward any multicast group member information to its

 

uplink router if the switch didn’t receive any IGMP query frames

 

from the router within a period.

 

Select Disable to turn this feature off for this port.

 

 

IGMP VLAN

Enter the ID of the static VLAN(s) that the MES-2110 includes in

 

its learning process of multicast group membership (of the ports).

 

Enter a VLAN ID between 1 and 4094.

Port 1-10

This shows the port numbers that you can configure individually

 

using the fields described below.

 

The Switch can forward multicast frames to IGMP static ports with

 

or without the learning process of multicast group membership.

 

 

Immediate Leave

Use this to enable or disable this feature.

 

When this is enabled on this port and the switch receives an IGMP

 

version 2 leave message for this port, this port is immediately

 

removed from the multicast group.

 

When this is disabled on this port and the switch receives an IGMP

 

version 2 leave message for this port, the Switch first uses this

 

port to send a query packet to ask its multicast group if it still has

 

active client requests. After one second and the Switch has not

 

receive a reply packet asking for the port's IGMP report, it

 

removes the port from the multicast group.

 

 

Static Query

Select Enable to stop the MES-2110 from using the port as an

 

IGMP query port. The MES-2110 will not keep any record of an

 

IGMP router being connected to this port.

 

Select Disable to have the MES-2110 use the port as an IGMP

 

query port if the port receives IGMP query frames.
