Set Up a Static Router Port for IGMP Snooping
If your network does not include a device that sends IGMP queries, the switch cannot discover the router
port dynamically. (The router port is a port on a device in the network that performs IGMP snooping in the
network.) In this situation, select one port on the switch as the dedicated static router port for IGMP snooping,
allowing all IGMP Join and Leave messages in the network to be forwarded to this port.
To set up a static router port for IGMP snooping:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the switch or to the
switch directly through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
The login page displays.
3. Enter the switch password.
The default password is password. The password is case-sensitive.
The HOME page displays.

6. From the menu in the IGMP Snooping Static Router Port section, select a specific port as the router
port or select Any to let IGMP Join and Leave messages be sent to every port on the switch.
Typically, the uplink port (that is, the port that is connected to your router or to the device that provides
your Internet connection) serves as the router port.
7. Click the APPLY button.
