Simulated queriers

This table contains all of the simulated queriers defined in the device. These units are employed if IGMP snooping functions are required but there is no multicast router in the network. The querier can be limited to certain bridge groups or VLANs if you define multiple independent queriers to support the corresponding VLAN IDs.





Entry active
Activates or deactivates the querier instance Possible values:
  • Activated
  • Deactivated
Default:
  • Activated
Name
Name of the querier instance Possible values:
  • 8 alphanumerical characters.
Default:
  • Blank
Bridge group
Limits the querier instance to a certain bridge group. Possible values:
  • Select from the list of available bridge groups.
  • None
Default:
  • BRG-1
Special values:
  • If bridge group is set to "none", the bridge sends all IGMP queries via all bridge groups.
VLAN-ID
Limits the querier instance to a certain VLAN. Possible values:
  • 0 to 4096
Default:
  • 0
Special values:
  • If the VLAN ID is set to "0", the bridge sends the IGMP requests without a VLAN tag. For this reason, this value only makes sense when VLAN is deactivated in general.
