An engineer is troubleshooting slow performance issues on a customer’s network after the last multicast configuration change was applied on it. While checking the running configuration on the router, the engineer notices there are many ip igmp join-group commands applied on several interfaces of the router which caused the high CPU utilization usage. What action must the engineer take to solve this issue?

  • A. Configure all router interfaces to be process-switched by increasing the query interval
  • B. Remove ip igmp join-group command on all unnecessary interfaces
  • C. Remove unnecessary members from the IGMP group
  • D. Configure ip igmp static-group command on all interfaces

I think B, it doesnt make much sense that you would add "ip igmp static-group" to ALL interfaces

"If the router has the ip igmp join-group command on any of the interfaces, the router itself becomes a receiver for the multicast stream. This command is used in order to move multicast traffic to this router without a real directly-connected receiver or without a Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) neighbor downstream that sends PIM Join requests for the multicast flow. However, because this router joins the multicast stream, all of the multicast packets are punted to the CPU. This can cause high CPU, or it can cause the rate-limiters (if any) or the Control Plane Protection (CoPP) to be hit. A better alternative that you can use in order to attract the multicast stream for this router is to configure the ip igmp static-group interface command. With this command, the router can still attract the multicast stream and forward it out on the interface, but the router itself does not become a receiver for the stream."

"Configure ip igmp static-group command on ALL interfaces" does not sound correct as well, if we only want it on specific interfaces.

You shouldn't use "ip igmp join-group" command in production, maybe only for test purpose as then all multicast packets are punted to the CPU. Better alternative command is " ip igmp static-group" So my option is D
