Configure a bridge domain to use IGMP Snooping properties by assigning an IGMP Snooping policy through the APIC GUI interface.

Assigning an IGMP Snooping policy to a bridge domain configures that bridge domain to use the IGMP Snooping properties specified in that policy.

This procedure allows you to apply IGMP Snooping configuration to a specific bridge domain within a tenant environment.

Before you begin

  • Configure a bridge domain for a tenant.

  • Configure the IGMP Snooping policy that will be attached to the bridge domain.

Note

For the Enable Querier option on the assigned policy to be effectively enabled, the Subnet Control: Querier IP setting must also be enabled in the subnets assigned to the bridge domains to which this policy is applied. The navigation path to the properties page on which this setting is located is Tenants > tenant_name > Networking > Bridge Domains > bridge_domain_name > Subnets > subnet_name.

Procedure

  1. Click the APIC Tenants tab and select the name of the tenant whose bridge domains you intend to configure with an IGMP Snoop policy.

  2. In the APIC navigation pane, click Networking > Bridge Domains, then select the bridge domain to which you intend to apply your policy-specified IGMP Snoop configuration.

  3. On the main Policy tab, scroll down to the IGMP Snoop Policy field and select the appropriate IGMP policy from the drop-down menu.

  4. Click Submit.

The target bridge domain is now associated with the specified IGMP Snooping policy.
