Recovering from Flood Mode (CLI)
When a topology change occurs, the spanning-tree root sends a special IGMP leave message (also known as
global leave) with the group multicast address 0.0.0.0. However, you can enable the device to send the global
leave message whether it is the spanning-tree root or not. When the router receives this special leave, it
immediately sends general queries, which expedite the process of recovering from the flood mode during the
TCN event. Leaves are always sent if the device is the spanning-tree root regardless of this configuration.
Follow these steps to enable sending of leave messages:
