Specifying the IGMP version

The version can be either 2 (IGMPv2) or 3 (IGMPv3). The default is 3. IGMPv2 supports filtering based on groups. IGMPv3 is more advanced and includes filtering based on source and groups.

If using the strict option, packets that do not match the configured version will be dropped.

Prerequisites

You must be in an interface configuration context, as indicated by the switch(config-if)# prompt, switch(config-if-vlan)# prompt, or switch(config-lag-if)# prompt.

Procedure

Specify the IGMP version for an interface using one of the following commands.

ip igmp version <VERSION>

ip igmp version <VERSION> strict

For example, the following command sets the IGMP version to 2 on interface VLAN 2:

switch(config)# interface vlan 2
switch(config-if-vlan)# ip igmp version 2

And the following command sets IGMP strict version to 2 on interface VLAN 5:

switch(config)# interface vlan 5
switch(config-if-vlan)# ip igmp version 2 strict
switch(config-if-vlan)# no ip igmp version 2 strict
