Usage Guidelines

The IGMP cache contains a list of the multicast groups of which hosts on the directly connected LAN are members. If the router has joined a group, it is also listed in the cache.

To delete all entries from the IGMP cache, specify the clear ip igmp group command with no arguments.

Examples

The following example clears entries for the multicast group 224.0.255.1 from the IGMP cache:

clear ip igmp group 224.0.255.1
