Chapter 22 Configuring Flex Links and the MAC Address-Table Move Update Feature
Understanding Flex Links and the MAC Address-Table Move Update
Similarly, both Flex Link ports are part of learned groups. In this example, GigabitEthernet1/1 is a
receiver/host in VLAN 1, which is interested in two multicast groups:
Switch# show ip igmp snooping groups
Vlan Group Type Version Port List
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
1 228.1.5.1 igmp v2 Gi1/1, Gi1/2, Fa2/1
1 228.1.5.2 igmp v2 Gi1/1, Gi1/2, Fa2/1
When a host responds to the general query, the switch forwards this report on all the mrouter ports. In
this example, when a host sends a report for the group 228.1.5.1, it is forwarded only on
GigabitEthernet1/1, because the backup port GigabitEthernet1/2 is blocked. When the active link,
GigabitEthernet1/1, goes down, the backup port, GigabitEthernet1/2, begins forwarding.
As soon as this port starts forwarding, the switch sends proxy reports for the groups 228.1.5.1 and
228.1.5.2 on behalf of the host. The upstream router learns the groups and starts forwarding multicast
data. This is the default behavior of Flex Link. This behavior changes when the user configures fast
convergence using the switchport backup interface gigabitEthernet 1/2 multicast fast-convergence
command. This example shows turning on this feature:
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1
Switch(config-if)# switchport backup interface gigabitethernet 1/2 multicast
fast-convergence
Switch(config-if)# exit
Switch# show interfaces switchport backup detail
Switch Backup Interface Pairs:

Preemption Mode : off
Multicast Fast Convergence : On
Bandwidth : 100000 Kbit (Gi1/1), 100000 Kbit (Gi1/2)

This output shows a querier for VLAN 1 and 401 with their queries reaching the switch through Gigabit
Ethernet1/1:
Switch# show ip igmp snooping querier
Vlan IP Address IGMP Version Port
-------------------------------------------------------------
1 1.1.1.1 v2 Gi1/1
401 41.41.41.1 v2 Gi1/1
This is output for the show ip igmp snooping mrouter command for VLAN 1 and 401:
Switch# show ip igmp snooping mrouter
Vlan ports
---- -----
1 Gi1/1(dynamic), Gi1/2(dynamic)
401 Gi1/1(dynamic), Gi1/2(dynamic)
Similarly, both the Flex Link ports are a part of the learned groups. In this example, GigabitEthernet1/1
is a receiver/host in VLAN 1, which is interested in two multicast groups:
Switch# show ip igmp snooping groups
