Changing IGMP V1 and V2 parameters

24

IGMP group membership time – Specifies how many seconds an IP Multicast group can remain
on a BigIron RX interface in the absence of a group report. Possible values are 1 – 7200. The
default is 260.

IGMP maximum response time – Specifies how many seconds the BigIron RX will wait for an
IGMP response from an interface before concluding that the group member on that interface is
down and removing the interface from the group. Possible values are 1 – 10. The default is 10.

To change these parameters, you must first enable IP multicast routing by entering the following CLI
command at the global CLI level.

BigIron RX(config)# ip multicast-routing

Syntax: [no] ip multicast-routing

NOTE

You must enter the ip multicast-routing command before changing the global IP Multicast
parameters. Otherwise, the changes do not take effect and the software uses the default values.
Also, entering no ip multicast-routing will reset all parameters to their default values.

Modifying IGMP (V1 and V2) query interval period

The IGMP query interval period defines how often a router will query an interface for group
membership. Possible values are 1 – 3,600 seconds and the default value is 125 seconds.

To modify the default value for the IGMP (V1 and V2) query interval, enter the following.

BigIron RX(config)# ip igmp query 120

Syntax: ip igmp query-interval <1-3600>

Modifying IGMP (V1 and V2) membership time

Group membership time defines how long a group will remain active on an interface in the absence
of a group report. Possible values are from 1 – 7200 seconds and the default value is 260
seconds.

To define an IGMP (V1 and V2) membership time of 270 seconds, enter the following.

BigIron RX(config)# ip igmp group-membership-time 270

Syntax: ip igmp group-membership-time <1-7200>

Modifying IGMP (V1 and V2) maximum response time

Maximum response time defines how long the device will wait for an IGMP (V1 and V2) response
from an interface before concluding that the group member on that interface is down and removing
the interface from the group. Possible values are 1 – 10. The default is 10.

To change the IGMP (V1 and V2) maximum response time, enter a command such as the following
at the global CONFIG level of the CLI.

BigIron RX(config)# ip igmp max-response-time 8

Syntax: [no] ip igmp max-response-time <num>

The <num> parameter specifies the number of seconds and can be a value from 1 – 10. The
default is 10.
