DES-3010F/DES-3010FL/DES-3010G/DES-3018/DES-3026 Fast Ethernet Switch Manual 
Parameter                       Description 
VLAN ID 
This is the VLAN ID that, along with the VLAN Name, identifies the VLAN for which to 
modify the IGMP Snooping Settings. 
VLAN Name 
This is the VLAN Name that, along with the VLAN ID, identifies the VLAN for which to 
modify the IGMP Snooping Settings. 
Query Interval 
The  Query Interval field is used to set the time (in seconds) between transmitting 
IGMP queries. Entries between 1 and 65535 seconds are allowed. Default = 125. 
Max Response Time 
This determines the maximum amount of time in seconds allowed before sending an 
IGMP response report. The Max Response Time field allows an entry between 1 and 
25 (seconds).  Default = 10. 
Robustness Value 
Adjust this variable according to expected packet loss. If packet loss on the VLAN is 
expected to be high, the Robustness Variable should be increased to accommodate 
increased packet loss. This entry field allows an entry of 1 to 255. Default = 2. 
Last Member Query 
Interval 
This field specifies the maximum amount of time between group-specific query 
messages, including those sent in response to leave group messages. Default = 1. 
Host Timeout 
This is the maximum amount of time in seconds allowed for a host to continue 
membership in a multicast group without the Switch receiving a host membership 
report. Default = 260. 
Router Timeout 
This is the maximum amount of time in seconds a route is kept in the forwarding table 
without receiving a membership report. Default = 260. 
Leave Timer 
This specifies the maximum amount of time in seconds between the Switch receiving 
a leave group message from a host, and the Switch issuing a group membership 
query. If no response to the membership query is received before the Leave Timer 
expires, the (multicast) forwarding entry for that host is deleted. 
Querier State 
Choose Enabled to enable transmitting IGMP Query packets or Disabled to disable. 
The default is Disabled. 
Querier Router 
Behavior 
This read-only field describes the behavior of the router for sending query packets. 
Querier will denote that the router is sending out IGMP query packets. Non-Querier 
will denote that the router is not sending out IGMP query packets. This field will only 
read Querier when the Querier State and the State fields have been Enabled. 
State 
Select Enabled to implement IGMP Snooping. This field is Disabled by default. 
Multicast fast leave 
This parameter allows the user to enable the Fast Leave function. Enabled, this 
function will allow members of a multicast group to leave the group immediately 
(without the implementation of the Last Member Query Timer) when an IGMP Leave 
Report Packet is received by the Switch. The default is Disabled. 
Click  Apply to implement the new settings. Click the Show All IGMP Snooping Entries  link to return to the Current 
IGMP Snooping Group Entries window. 
 
NOTE: The Fast Leave function is intended for IGMPv2 users wishing to 
leave a multicast group and is best implemented on VLANs that have only 
one host connected to each port. When one host of a group of hosts uses 
the Fast Leave function, it may cause the inadvertent fast leave of other 
hosts of the group.
