Configuring IGMP Snooping
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to globally enable IGMP snooping on the
switch:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
ip igmp snooping
Step 3
end
Step 4
copy running-config startup-config
To globally disable IGMP snooping on all VLAN interfaces, use the no ip igmp snooping global
configuration command.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable IGMP snooping on a VLAN interface:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
ip igmp snooping vlan vlan-id
Step 3
end
Step 4
copy running-config startup-config
To disable IGMP snooping on a VLAN interface, use the no ip igmp snooping vlan vlan-id global
configuration command for the specified VLAN number.
Setting the Snooping Method
Multicast-capable router ports are added to the forwarding table for every Layer 2 multicast entry. The
switch learns of such ports through one of these methods:
•
•
•
You can configure the switch either to snoop on IGMP queries and PIM/DVMRP packets or to listen to
CGMP self-join or proxy-join packets. By default, the switch snoops on PIM/DVMRP packets on all
VLANs. To learn of multicast router ports through only CGMP packets, use the ip igmp snooping vlan
vlan-id mrouter learn cgmp global configuration command. When this command is issued, the router
listens to only CGMP self-join and CGMP proxy-join packets and no other CGMP packets. To learn of
multicast router ports through only PIM-DVMRP packets, use the ip igmp snooping vlan vlan-id
mrouter learn pim-dvmrp global configuration command.
Note
If you want to use CGMP as the learning method and no multicast routers in the VLAN are CGMP
proxy-enabled, you must enter the ip cgmp router-only command to dynamically access the router.
