Pruning
Dynamic
Sessions, Client
Ports, and
Router Ports
Normally, dynamically created multicast sessions are removed by
the application (for example, IGMP Snooping, LGMP, or CGMP
Snooping) that created the session when the session is no longer
active. You can also enable Automatic Session Pruning so that if a
session has not been active for Session Pruning Time, it is
automatically removed.
You also have the ability to enable Automatic Client Port Pruning so
that a client port is removed from a session if no IGMP reports have
been received on that port for that session in the time specified.
* Note: By enabling Automatic Client Port Pruning, there is a
chance that the switch may disrupt multicast service
temporarily to clients requesting to receive that
multicast traffic.
Automatic Router Port Pruning works similarly pruning quiet router
ports. If the switch has not been notified that there is a router on the
port in Router Pruning Time, then the router port is removed.
