Embodiment Construction
[0028] The following will describe the implementation process of the Internet management protocol monitoring method of the embodiment of the present invention and the switch used in this embodiment according to the two-layer ring type Ethernet network shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 and Fig. 3:
[0029] In Figure 1, the Layer 2 Ethernet ring network runs Spanning Tree Protocol (STP: Spanning Tree Protocol), and IGMP Snooping is enabled on switches S1, S2 and S3. Switch S1 is connected to router R1. The switch S2 is connected to the hosts H1 and H2, and the spanning tree protocol blocks the link between the switch S2 and the switch S3.
[0030] Router R1 periodically sends IGMP query messages to query which multicast groups have members under each switch in the ring network. After the IGMP Snooping modules of switches S1, S2, and S3 receive the IGMP query messages from router R1, they will receive the IGMP query messages. The interface of the message is added to the router (router)...
