IGMP issue

d.heo · ‎02-02-2007

One of my customer has multicating issue on CPU usage like this.

If I reload the switch, it is OK for an hour or two. After that, the CPU usage comes back like this.

Please help me.

FBS271-(R)#show processes cpu

Thank you in advance,

Which switch?

IGMPSN is the IGMP snooping process

Do you need it? It can be tunred off.

Erik Ofelt,

1. 3550

2. Yes I need it

3. If I turn it off, between the switch(Routing Function) and host(Multicast Client) have some communication isssue.

Good info. Production device I assume right?

What code on that box?

I'd check to see if the ios code has any bugs. From the info from your first post, it seems like buffers are filling up and not releasing.

Can you post a config too?

d.heo · ‎02-02-2007

There is not much configuration on the switch.

Like eigrp for routing and ip pim sparse for multicating.

I configured multicasting several sites before, but with this ios and configuration, I did not meet this kind of problem.

For your info, this is the version.
