igmp router This command displays or sets specified ports which are attached to a
known IGMP router.
SYNTAX
igmp router [port-list] [enable | disable]
port-list - A specific port or a range of ports. (Range: 1-28, or all)
enable - Sets the specified ports to function as a router port, which
leads towards a Layer 3 multicast device or IGMP querier.
disable - Disables router port functionality on the specified ports.
DEFAULT SETTING
Disabled
COMMAND USAGE
If IGMP snooping cannot locate the IGMP querier, you can manually
designate a port which is connected to a known IGMP querier (i.e., a
multicast router/switch). This interface will then join all the current
multicast groups supported by the attached router/switch to ensure that
multicast traffic is passed to all appropriate interfaces within the switch.
