immediately delete the forwarding entry corresponding to that port from the forwarding table; instead, it
resets the aging timer of the member port.
Upon receiving the IGMP leave message from a host, the IGMP querier resolves from the message the
address of the multicast group that the host just left and sends an IGMP group-specific query to that
multicast group through the port that received the leave message. Upon receiving the IGMP
group-specific query, a device forwards it through all the router ports in the VLAN and all member ports
of that multicast group, and performs the following to the receiving port:
z If any IGMP report in response to the group-specific query arrives to the member port before its
aging timer expires, this means that some other members of that multicast group still exist under
that port: the device resets the aging timer of the member port.
z If no IGMP report in response to the group-specific query arrives to the member port before its
aging timer expires as a response to the IGMP group-specific query, this means that no members
of that multicast group still exist under the port: the device deletes the forwarding entry
corresponding to the port from the forwarding table when the aging timer expires.
After a device enables IGMP Snooping, when it receives the IGMP leave message sent by a host in a
multicast group, it judges whether the multicast group exists automatically. If the multicast group does
not exist, the device drops this IGMP leave message.
