Fast Leave mode.

Enabling Fast Leave mode lets the switch immediately remove the Layer 2 LAN
interfaces from its forwarding table entry upon receiving an MLD Done message for that
multicast group without first sending MAC-based general queries to the interface.

We recommend that you enable Fast Leave admin mode only on VLANs for which only
one host is connected to a Layer 2 LAN port. This mode prevents the inadvertent
dropping of the other hosts that are connected to the same Layer 2 LAN port but are
configured to receive multicast traffic. Also, fast leave processing is supported only with
MLD version 1 hosts.

Group Membership Interval

Maximum Response Time

field, set the value for the maximum response time of

The Multicast Router Expiry Time field is a calculated field, displaying the value for the

calculated as the value in the Group Membership Interval field minus the value in the
Maximum Response Time field.
