Enable IGMP Querier

IGMP snoop querier is used to keep host memberships alive. It’s primarily used in a network where
there’s a multicast streaming server, hosts subscribed to the server and no IGMP querier present. An
IGMP querier sends out periodic IGMP query packets. Interested hosts reply with an IGMP report
packet. IGMP snooping is only conducted on wireless radios. IGMP multicast packets are flooded on
wired ports. IGMP multicast packet are not flooded on the wired port. IGMP membership is also learnt
on it and only if present, then it is forwarded on that port.

Source IP Address

Define an IP address applied as the source address in the IGMP query packet. This address is used as
the default VLAN querier IP address.

IGMP Version

Use the spinner control to set the IGMP version compatibility to either version 1, 2 or 3. The default
setting is 3.

Maximum Response
Time

Specify the maximum time (from 1 - 25 seconds) before sending a responding report. When no
reports are received from a radio, radio information is removed from the snooping table. For IGMP
reports from wired ports, reports are only forwarded to the multicast router ports. The default setting
is 10 seconds.

Other Querier Timer
Expiry

Specify an interval in either Seconds (60 - 300) or Minutes (1 - 5) used as a timeout interval for other
querier resources. The default setting is 1 minute.
