3. Change igmp proxy to igmp snooping, configure igmp-snooping querier enable command, this command force S9306 to send igmp query packets for refurbishing layer 2 broadcast forwarding table aging time when S9306 run igmp snooping, make sure broadcast forwarding is lasting.

Root Cause

Client send igmp report packets when client begin to click on-demand, so layer 2 broadcast forwarding table can establish normally, but after table old, igmp snooping does not trigger update mechanism, so unless client click on-demand again, layer 2 broadcast forwarding table will be empty.
