MAC Group Address FDB

The device supports forwarding incoming Multicast traffic based on the Multicast group
information. This information is derived from the IGMP packets received or as the result of manual
configuration, and it is stored in the Multicast Forwarding Database (MFDB). When a frame is
received from a VLAN that is configured to forward Multicast streams, based on MAC group
addresses, and its destination address is a Layer 2.
Multicast address, the frame is forwarded to all ports that are members of the MAC group
address.
The MAC Group Address FDB page has the following functions:
• Query and view information from the MFDB, relating to a specific VLAN ID or a specific
MAC address group. This data is acquired either dynamically through IGMP snooping or
statically by manual entry.
Add or delete static entries to the MFDB that provide static forwarding information, based
•
on MAC destination addresses.
Display a list of all ports/LAGs that are a member of each VLAN ID and MAC address
•
group, and enter whether traffic is forwarded to it or not.
