Page 54 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: IGMP
Static IGMP > Explanation of Static IGMP
We can see the static entry on switch 3 by checking the IGMP snooping and IGMP tables.
Note that switch 3—the Querier—has no entry for port 26 and therefore does not send the
multicast to switch
1
. This is because the static entry joined switch
1
to the stream without
any client sending a Membership Report.
If the multicast server was attached to switch 3 instead of switch
1
, we would have to change
switch 3’s configuration. We would need to add a static entry for the port that switch 3 uses
to connect to switch
1
(port 26). Although this is unnecessary in this scenario, we will do it
to demonstrate the effect, by using the following commands.
