Configuring a port as a simulated member host

When a port is configured as a simulated member host, it is equivalent to an independent host in the following ways:

• It sends an unsolicited IGMP report when you complete the configuration.

• It responds to IGMP general queries with IGMP reports.

• It sends an IGMP leave message when you cancel the configuration.

The version of IGMP running on the simulated member host is the same as the version of IGMP snooping running on the port. The port ages out in the same way as a dynamic member port.

2. Enter Layer 2 interface view.

   • Enter Layer 2 Ethernet interface view.

     interface interface-type interface-number

   • Enter Layer 2 aggregate interface view.

     interface bridge-aggregation interface-number

3. Configure the port as a simulated member host.

   By default, the port is not a simulated member host.
