149 IGMP Theory of Operation The following three topologies detail how IGMP Query works and to be configured within a network: 1. Auto mode needs to be enabled when the router’s IP a ddress is smaller than other switches in the subnet.
150 2. IGMP needs to be enabled when the router’s IP address is not sm aller than other switches in the subnet. This Router supports IGMP protocol, but IGM P has to be enabled, and the Router has to be the Querier.
151 3. The following topology must be set when the IP address of the swi tch is not the smallest in the subnet. The network will cause a multi-cast storm from the IGMP client report if it is in Auto mode. All switches must be in disable mode when the VOD server is configured for IGMP Querier.
152 7-4-3. Console Port Information Console is a standard UART interface to communicate with a serial port. The Windows HyperTermina l p r ogram can be used to lin k the switch with the console port. In order to change any of these parameters, you must be connected to the console port.
153 7-4-4. Port Controls The Port Controls menu allows changing of port configurations. State: User can disable or enable each port. Negotiation: Us er can set auto negotiation mode for each port to Auto, Nway (specify the speed/duplex on this port and enable auto-negotiation) or Force.
154 Band Width: Ports 1 to 24 support by-port ingress and egress rate control. For example, if port 1 is set to 10Mbps, you can set it’s effective egress rate to 1Mbps and ingress rate to 500Kbps. The MIL-SM2401M-STK will perform flow control or backpressure to confine the ingress rate to meet the specified rate.
