This section describes the Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Snooping feature. IGMP
Snooping enables the switch to monitor IGMP transactions between hosts and routers. It can help
conserve bandwidth by allowing the switch to forward IP multicast traffic only to connected hosts that
request multicast traffic.
Overview
The IGMP feature:
Uses Version 3 of IGMP
Includes snooping, which can be enabled per VLAN
CLI Examples
The following examples show commands to use with the IGMP Snooping feature.
Example #1: Enable IGMP Snooping on an Interface
First, enable IGMP Snooping on the switch:
console(config)#ip igmp snooping
Then, configure IGMP Snooping on an interface:
console(config)#interface ethernet 1/g17
console(config-if-1/g17)#ip igmp snooping?
host-time-out
Configure host time out parameter.
leave-time-out
Configure leave time out parameter.
mrouter-time-out
Configure mrouter time out parameter.
<cr>
Press enter to execute the command.
console(config-if-1/g17)#ip igmp snooping
console(config-if-1/g17)#exit
Example #2: Show IGMP Snooping Information for the Switch
console#show ip igmp snooping
