To define Multicast router ports:
STEP 1 Click Multicast > Multicast Router Port. The
Multicast Router Port Page
opens.
STEP 2 Enter some or all of following query filter criteria:
• VLAN ID equals to—Select the VLAN ID for the router ports that are
described.
• IPv4 or IPv6 equals to—Select the IP version that the multicast router
supports.
• Interface Type equals to—Select whether to display ports or LAGs.
STEP 3 Click Go. The interfaces matching the query criteria are displayed.
STEP 4 For each interface, select its association type. The options are as follows:
• Static—The port is statically configured as a multicast router port.
• Dynamic—The port is dynamically configured as a multicast router port by
a MLD/IGMP query. To enable the dynamic learning of multicast router ports,
go to the Multicast > IGMP Snooping Page, and the Multicast > MLD
Snooping Page
• Forbidden—This port is not to be configured as a multicast router port, even
if IGMP or MLD queries are received on this port. If Auto Detect Mrouter
Ports is enabled on this port, the configuration does not succeed.
• None—The port is not currently a multicast router port.
STEP 5 Click Apply to update the switch.
Defining Forward All Multicast
The
Forward All Page
enables and displays the configuration of the ports and/or
LAGs that are to receive all of the multicast stream from a specific VLAN. This
feature requires that the Bridge Multicast filtering in the Properties Page be
enabled. If it is disabled, then all Multicast traffic is flooded to all ports in the
switch.
You can statically configure a port to Forward All, if the devices connecting to the
port does not support IGMP and/or MLD.
