Configuring sub-VLAN-based multicast VLAN

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure sub-VLAN-based multicast VLAN, complete the following tasks:
Create VLANs as required
•
Enable IGMP snooping in the VLAN to be configured as a multicast VLAN
•
Configuring sub-VLAN-based multicast VLAN
In this approach, you configure a VLAN as a multicast VLAN and configure user VLANs as sub-VLANs of
the multicast VLAN.
Follow these steps to configure sub-VLAN-based multicast VLAN:
To do...
Enter system view
Configure the specified VLAN as
a multicast VLAN and enter
multicast VLAN view
Configure the specified VLANs as
sub-VLANs of the multicast VLAN
