Configuring IGMP Snooping
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the TCN flood query count:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
ip igmp snooping tcn flood query count
count
Step 3
end
Step 4
show ip igmp snooping
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config
To return to the default flooding query count, use the no ip igmp snooping tcn flood query count global
configuration command.
Recovering from Flood Mode
When a topology change occurs, the spanning-tree root sends a special IGMP leave message (also known
as global leave) with the group multicast address 0.0.0.0. However, when you enable the ip igmp
snooping tcn query solicit global configuration command, the switch sends the global leave message
whether or not it is the spanning-tree root. When the router receives this special leave, it immediately
sends general queries, which expedite the process of recovering from the flood mode during the TCN
event. Leaves are always sent if the switch is the spanning-tree root regardless of this configuration
command. By default, query solicitation is disabled.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable the switch to send the global leave
message whether or not it is the spanning-tree root:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
ip igmp snooping tcn query solicit
Step 3
end
Step 4
show ip igmp snooping
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config
To return to the default query solicitation, use the no ip igmp snooping tcn query solicit global
configuration command.
