IP Multicast Filtering
This chapter provides information on configuring IP multicast filtering
on the Avaya P460 Device. It includes the following sections:
• IP Multicast Filtering Overview - A brief overview of IP
multicast filtering.

the IP Multicast Filtering dialog box and descriptions of the

IP multicast filtering provides a method for distributing high-bandwidth
applications to specific stations that may be configured on different
VLANs. It allows for a single copy of the data to be propagated on the
network, copied only when the paths to end stations diverge.
