Layer 2 IGMP (Snooping and Query)

– 518 –

IGMP Snooping Version – Sets the protocol version for compatibility

with other devices on the network. This is the IGMP Version the switch

uses to send snooping reports. (Range: 1-3; Default: 2)
This attribute configures the IGMP report/query version used by IGMP

snooping. Versions 1 - 3 are all supported, and versions 2 and 3 are

backward compatible, so the switch can operate with other devices,

regardless of the snooping version employed.

Querier Status – When enabled, the switch can serve as the Querier,

which is responsible for asking hosts if they want to receive multicast

traffic. This feature is not supported for IGMPv3 snooping.

(Default: Disabled)
