If the received packet has a class D IP address indicating a multicast group address
NOTE
(224.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255), the workgroups will not be used and the normal IP
forwarding rules apply.
If the workgroups are configured for an IPX network:
1. If the destination IPX network of the packet is zero, then all IPX
workgroups for the receiving port are combined.
2. If the destination IPX network of the packet matches the IPX network
defined for a workgroup, the broadcast will be sent to port members of
that workgroup.
3. If a default IPX workgroup for the receiving port is indicated, then the
broadcast will be sent out of the ports in that workgroup.
If none of these conditions apply, the packet will be forwarded out all
Spanning Tree forwarding ports.
To access the Virtual Workgroups window:
1. Click on the PPE's Module Index (Module 1). The Module menu will appear.
