1-8
z To prevent bursting traffic in the network or performance deterioration of the device caused by
excessive multicast groups, you can set the maximum number of multicast groups that the switch
should process.
z When the number of multicast groups exceeds the configured limit, the switch removes its
multicast forwarding entries starting from the oldest one. In this case, the multicast packets for the
removed multicast group(s) will be flooded in the VLAN as unknown multicast packets. As a result,
non-member ports can receive multicast packets within a period of time.
Examples
# Configure to allow Ethernet 1/0/1 in VLAN 2 to join a maximum of 200 multicast groups.

[Sysname] interface Ethernet 1/0/1
[Sysname-Ethernet1/0/1] igmp-snooping group-limit 200 vlan 2
igmp-snooping group-policy
Syntax
igmp-snooping group-policy acl-number [ vlan vlan-list ]
undo igmp-snooping group-policy [ vlan vlan-list ]
View
System view, Ethernet port view
Parameters
acl-number: Basic ACL number, in the range of 2000 to 2999.
vlan vlan-list: Specifies a VLAN list. With the vlan-list argument, you can provide one or more individual
VLAN IDs (in the form of vlan-id) and/or one or more VLAN ID ranges (in the form of vlan-id1 to vlan-id2,
where vlan-id2 must be greater than vlan-id1). The effective range for a VLAN ID is 1 to 4094 and the
total number of individual VLANs plus VLAN ranges cannot exceed 10.
Description
Use the igmp-snooping group-policy command to configure a multicast group filter.
Use the undo igmp-snooping group-policy command to remove the configured multicast group filter.
By default, no multicast group filter is configured.
The ACL rule defines a multicast address or a multicast address range (for example 224.0.0.1 to
239.255.255.255) and is used to:
z Allow the port(s) to join only the multicast group(s) defined in the rule by a permit statement.
z Inhibit the port(s) from joining the multicast group(s) defined in the rule by a deny statement.
