Configuring IGMP snooping port functions
Before you configure IGMP snooping port functions, complete the following tasks:
• Enable IGMP snooping for the VLAN.
• Determine the aging timer for dynamic router ports.
• Determine the aging timer for dynamic member ports.
• Determine the addresses of the multicast group and multicast source.
Setting aging timers for dynamic ports
When you set aging timers for dynamic ports, follow these guidelines:
• If the memberships of multicast groups frequently change, you can set a relatively small value for the
aging timer of the dynamic member ports. If the memberships of multicast groups rarely change,
you can set a relatively large value.
• If a dynamic router port receives a PIMv2 hello message, the aging timer for the port is specified by
the hello message. In this case, the router-aging-time command or the igmp-snooping
router-aging-time command does not take effect on the port.
• You can set the aging timers for dynamic ports either for the current VLAN in VLAN view or globally
for all VLANs in IGMP-snooping view. If the configurations are made in both VLAN view and
IGMP-snooping view, the configuration made in VLAN view takes priority.
