Configuring static ports
You can configure the following types of static ports:
Static member port—When you configure a port as a static member port for a multicast group, all hosts attached to the port will receive multicast data for the group.
The static member port does not respond to IGMP queries. When you complete or cancel this configuration on a port, the port does not send an unsolicited IGMP report or leave message.
Static router port—When you configure a port as a static router port for a multicast group, all multicast data for the group received on the port will be forwarded.
Static member ports and static router ports never age out. To remove such a port, use the undo igmp-snooping static-group or undo igmp-snooping static-router-port command.
To configure static ports:
Step | Command | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
1. Enter system view. | system-view | N/A |
2. Enter Layer 2 Ethernet interface view or Layer 2 aggregate interface view. | interface interface-type interface-number | N/A |
3. Configure the port as a static port. |
| By default, a port is not a static member port or a static router port. |
