configure eaps multicast send-igmp-query
Description
Configures the switch to send IGMP query messages to all protected VLANs when an EAPS topology change occurs.
Syntax Description
on | Enables the multicast send-igmp-query feature. |
off | Disables the multicast send-igmp-query feature. |
Default
On.
Usage Guidelines
When this feature is set to on and an EAPS topology change occurs, the switch sends IGMP query messages to all protected VLANs. If the protected VLANs in the node detecting (and generating) the topology change do not have IP address, a query is generated with the source IP address set to the querier address in that VLAN.
In a EAPS ring with many protected VLANs, the many responses can impact switch performance. This is the default behavior and was the only method for supporting multicast traffic during EAPS topology changes prior to release 12.1.2.
Example
The following command disables the send-igmp-query feature:
configure eaps multicast send-igmp-query off
