Describes a network feature that pre-provisions switch ports to receive multicast traffic without join latency.
IGMP snooping static port groups are a network configuration feature that
-
pre-provisions ports that were previously statically-assigned to an application EPG
-
enables switch ports to receive and process IGMP multicast traffic, and
-
prevents join latency that normally occurs when the IGMP snooping stack learns ports dynamically.
Configuration requirements and options
Static group membership configuration has these requirements and options:
-
Can be pre-provisioned only on static ports assigned to an application EPG
-
Can be configured through the APIC GUI, CLI, and REST API interfaces
