This feature is recommended in MFF networks only.

For details about MFF, refer to ARP Operation.  

 

Simulated joining in IGMP Snooping is implemented in the same way as in IGMP except that IGMP 

Snooping establishes and maintains IGMP Snooping entries.  

Follow these steps to enable simulated joining in VLAN interface view: 

Enter system view 

system-view — 

Enter VLAN interface view 

interface Vlan-interface interface-number 

— 

Enable simulated joining 

igmp host-join group-address [ source-ip 
source-address ] port interface-list 

Required 

Disabled by 
default 

 

Follow these steps to configure a port as a simulated group member:  

Enter system view 

— 

Enter Ethernet port view 

interface interface-type 
interface-number 

— 

Configure the current port as a 
simulated multicast group 
member 

igmp host-join group-address 
[ source-ip source-address ] vlan vlan-id 

Required 

Simulated joining is 
disabled by default. 

 

z 

Before configuring a simulated host, enable IGMP Snooping in VLAN view first.  

z 

The port to be configured must belong to the specified VLAN; otherwise the configuration does not 

take effect. 

z 

You can use the source-ip source-address command to specify a multicast source address that the 

port will join as a simulated host. This configuration takes effect when IGMPv3 Snooping is enabled 

in the VLAN.
