Usage Guidelines

The no form of this command restores the default wait time.

The device sends group-specific queries once per second to ask if any client in the same port still needs this group. Because of internal timer granularity, the actual wait time is between n and (n+1) seconds (n is the configured value).

Examples

This example configures the maximum time a client can wait before responding to a query to 1 second. 

Device(config)#ip multicast leave-wait-time 1
