Configuring IGMP Filtering and Throttling
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to apply an IGMP profile to a switch port:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
interface interface-id
Step 3
ip igmp filter profile number
Step 4
end
Step 5
show running configuration interface
interface-id
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config
To remove a profile from an interface, use the no ip igmp filter profile number interface configuration
command.
This example shows how to apply IGMP profile 4 to an interface and verify the configuration.
Switch(config)# interface fastethernet0/12
Switch(config-if)# ip igmp filter 4
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch# show running-config interface fastethernet0/12

ip igmp filter 4
end
Setting the Maximum Number of IGMP Groups
You can set the maximum number of IGMP groups that a Layer 2 interface can join by using the ip igmp
max-groups interface configuration command. Use the no form of this command to set the maximum
back to the default, which is no limit.
This restriction can be applied to Layer 2 ports only; you cannot set a maximum number of IGMP groups
on routed ports or SVIs. You also can use this command on a logical EtherChannel interface but cannot
use it on ports that belong to an EtherChannel port group.

Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enter interface configuration mode, and enter the physical interface to
configure, for example fastethernet0/3. The interface must be a Layer
2 port that does not belong to an EtherChannel port group.
Apply the specified IGMP profile to the interface. The profile number
can be from 1 to 4294967295.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify the configuration.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
