Parameter Description Valid Options
Query Response
Interval
Time to wait for responses to general queries, in seconds.
Note: Setting the value lower than 10 could result in a high traffic
1-20
10 ‡
Query Interval Time interval in seconds between general queries.
Note: Calix recommends setting (or leaving) the IGMP Query
Interval value for the video VLAN to 60 seconds (default).
A 60-second query interval allows a good balance between
maintaining bandwidth efficiency (channel pruning) versus limiting
potential IGMP control message processing overflow by the CPU,
and it matches the typical default IGMP Query setting on most
10-1000
60 ‡
Startup Query
Time interval between general queries during startup in seconds. 2-250
Startup Query Count Time to wait for responses to general queries during startup. 1-10
Host Purge Time Purge time in seconds for host ports. 130-3600

Source Specific
Multicast Start
Address
IP address that indicates the start of the range used by the system
to switch E7 multicast traffic based on a destination IP instead of a
destination MAC.
Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) is a form of multicast in which the
host subscribes to a multicast group from a specific video source.
This allows the reuse of the same multicast group address for
different video servers to provide different contents.
Multicast IP not in the source specific range would be discarded.
232.0.0.0 ‡
Source Specific
Multicast End
Address
IP address that indicates the end of the range used by the system to
switch E7 multicast traffic based on a destination IP instead of a
destination MAC.
Multicast IP not in the source specific range would be discarded.
