User Guidelines

Use the no form of the ip igmp snooping vlan querier election command to

disable IGMP Querier election mechanism on a VLAN.
If the IGMP Querier election mechanism is enabled, the IGMP Snooping

querier supports the standard IGMP Querier election mechanism specified in

RFC2236 and RFC3376.
If IGMP Querier election mechanism is disabled, IGMP Snooping Querier

delays sending General Query messages for 60 seconds from the time it was

enabled. During this time, if the switch did not receive an IGMP query from

another Querier - it starts sending General Query messages. Once the switch

acts as a Querier, it will stop sending General Query messages if it detects

another Querier on the VLAN. In this case, the switch will resume sending

General Query messages if it does hear another Querier for Query Passive

interval that equals:
<Robustness>*<Query Interval> + 0.5*<Query Response Interval).
See the

ip igmp robustness

,

ip igmp last-member-query-interval

, and

ip igmp

query-max-response-time

commands for configurations of these parameters.

It is recommended to disable IGMP Querier election mechanism if there is an

IPM Multicast router on the VLAN.
