10.5 Static MAC Multicast Screen

Click Multicast > Static MAC Multicast in the navigation panel to display the screen shown

Use static multicast to allow incoming frames based on the VID and multicast MAC

address(es). Use this feature to forward layer 2 multicast packets through the IES.

Use static multicast to allow incoming frames based on the VID and multicast MAC

address(es). This feature can be used in conjunction with IGMP snooping to allow multicast

MAC address(es) that are not learned by IGMP snooping or IGMP proxy and would otherwise

be dropped. Use static multicast to pass routing protocols, such as RIP and OSPF.

This screen lets you input multicast MAC addresses so you can allow non-IPv4 static

multicast traffic (such as IPv6 static multicast traffic).

The numbers represent the individual ports on the card.

Use the F, -, and X radio buttons to set each port's membership in the static multicast

Select F to make the port a permanent member of the static multicast group.

Select - to make the port a normal member and allow it to join the multicast group

dynamically.

Select X to set the port to "forbidden" meaning it is always blocked from joining the

static multicast group.

Use the All Fix, All Normal or All Forbidden button if you want to set all of the

card's ports to the same membership status for this static multicast group. See

282 on page 533

for more on VLAN registration.

Click Apply to save the changes in this screen to the system's volatile memory. The

system loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Config Save

on the navigation panel and then the Save button to save your changes to the non-

volatile memory when you are done configuring.

Click Cancel to close the screen without saving your changes.
