DESCRIPTION

IGMP Snooping

Select Active to enable IGMP snooping to forward group multicast traffic only to

ports that are members of that group.

Host Timeout

Specify the time (from 1 to 16,711,450) in seconds that elapses before the switch

removes an IGMP group membership entry if it does not receive report messages

from the port.

Leave Timeout

Enter an IGMP leave timeout value (from 1 to 16,711,450) in seconds. This

defines how many seconds the switch waits for an IGMP report before removing

an IGMP snooping membership entry when an IGMP leave message is received

from a host.

802.1p Priority

Select a priority level (0-7) to which the switch changes the priority in outgoing

IGMP control packets. Otherwise, select No-Change to not replace the priority.

IGMP Filtering

Select Active to enable IGMP filtering to control which IGMP groups a subscriber

on a port can join.
