摘要： A method for convergence of multicast traffic in response to a topology change. The method includes, in response to a change in a multicast topology, redirecting multicast traffic through a network device of a plurality of network devices in the multicast topology and determining a querier status of the network device. The method also includes flooding the multicast traffic through an interface to the network device to facilitate convergence of the multicast traffic. The interface is a connecting point between the network device and another network device of the plurality of network devices.
