Displaying IGMP Snooping Information
To establish an IGMP query threshold, perform this task:
This example shows how to modify the switch to stop flooding multicast traffic after four queries:
Switch(config)# ip igmp snooping tcn flood query count 4
Switch(config)# end
Switch#
When a spanning tree root switch receives a topology change in an IGMP snooping-enabled VLAN, the 
switch issues a query solicitation that causes an Cisco IOS router to send out one or more general 
queries. The new command ip igmp snooping tcn query solicit causes the switch to send the query 
solicitation whenever it notices a topology change, even if that switch is not the spanning tree root.
This command operates at the global configuration level.
By default, query solicitation is disabled unless the switch is the spanning tree root. The default keyword 
restores the default behavior.
To direct a switch to send a query solicitation, perform this task:
This example shows how to configure the switch to send a query solicitation upon detecting a TCN:
Switch(config)# ip igmp snooping tcn query solicit
Switch(config)# end
Switch#
Displaying IGMP Snooping Information
The following sections show how to display IGMP snooping information:

Command Purpose
Step 1
Switch(config)#
ip igmp snooping tcn flood query count <n>
Modifies the number of IGMP queries the switch waits 
for before it stops flooding multicast traffic.
To return the switch to the default number of IGMP 
queries, enter this command: 
default ip igmp snooping tcn flood query count.
Step 2
Switch(config)# end 
Exits configuration mode.
Command Purpose
Step 1
Switch(config)# ip igmp snooping tcn query 
solicit
Configures the switch to send a query solicitation when 
a TCN is detected.
To stop the switch from sending a query solicitation (if 
it is not a spanning tree root switch), enter the 
no ip igmp snooping tcn query solicit command.
Step 2
Switch(config)# end 
Exits configuration mode.
