Users Guide

• You must congure an IP address to the VLAN interface for IGMP snooping Querier to begin. The IGMP snooping Querier
disables itself when a VLAN IP address is cleared, and then it restarts itself when an IP address is reassigned to the VLAN
interface.
• When enabled, IGMP snooping Querier does not start if there is a statically congured multicast router interface in the VLAN.
• When enabled, IGMP snooping Querier starts after one query interval in case no IGMP general query (with IP SA lower than its
VLAN IP address) is received on any of its VLAN members.
• When enabled, IGMP snooping Querier periodically sends general queries with an IP source address of the VLAN interface. If it
receives a general query on any of its VLAN member, it checks the IP source address of the incoming frame.
If the IP SA in the incoming IGMP general query frame is lower than the IP address of the VLAN interface, the switch disables its
IGMP snooping Querier functionality.
If the IP SA of the incoming IGMP general query is higher than the VLAN IP address, the switch continues to work as an IGMP
snooping Querier.
