IGMP and Multicasting

Commands

This chapter explains how to use commands to configure the Internet Group Membership
Protocol (IGMP) on the Switch. It also covers configuring the ports to remove the VLAN tag
from outgoing multicast packets on the Switch.

22.1 IGMP Overview

The Switch supports IGMP version 1 (IGMP-v1), version 2 (IGMP-v2) and IGMP version 3
(IGMP-v3). Refer to RFC 1112, RFC 2236 and RFC 3376 for information on IGMP versions
1, 2 and 3 respectively. At start up, the Switch queries all directly connected networks to
gather group membership. After that, the Switch periodically updates this information.

22.2 Command Summary

The following section lists the commands for this feature.
