It's an option, but I really, REALLY want to avoid enabling multicast
routing just so I can silence a spurious log message.
(It's an MPLS network, so multicast == MVPN, which we do use - but it's
complex enough that it feels like swatting a fly with a sledgehammer...)

I guess so, which is fine - conceptually snooping is a layer2 function -
but if snooping is enabled, the 6500 should honour the interval of the
querier, not constantly complain about it, especially since 125 seconds
is the RFC standard, and 60 seconds is some Cisco "we know best"
alternative.
Sigh - I have opened a TAC case. Which I'm sure will be fun!
