How to force one switch to be igmp snooping querier "master"

Jul 06, 2007 0 Replies

Hi all



I have two 6513 switches connected over a L2 trunk. Each switch has an SVI for the same subnet and HSRP configured with one switch being the active and the other standby. Both switches has the command " ip igmp snooping querier" configured on the SVI.



Problem; When I run the "show ip igmp snooping mrouter" command on the primary switch I the the answer that the mrouter resides on the trunking port connected to the standby switch. When I run the same command on the secondary switch I get the answer that the "switch" is the mrouter.



My question is this; Is this "election" of igmp snooping querier mrouter a random process or something that can be managed? I.E. can I set the primary switch to be the snooping querier mrouter "master"?



Regards Fredrik Hofgren
