EP Module Hardware Flooding for Layer 2 Multicast and Broadcast
Packets
You can configure Enhanced Performance modules to perform hardware flooding for Layer 2 multicast and
broadcast packets. Layer 2 multicast packets have a multicast address in the destination MAC address field.
You enable hardware flooding for Layer 2 multicast and broadcast packets on a per-VLAN basis. For example:
HP9300(config)#
HP9300(config)# vlan 2
HP9300(config-vlan-2)# multicast-flooding
HP9300(config-vlan-2)# exit
Syntax: multicast-flooding
After entering the multicast-flooding command for a VLAN, you must reboot the HP device to activate the
feature.
Notes:
• This feature is supported only on EP modules and the 10 Gigabit Ethernet module.
• This feature cannot be enabled on an empty VLAN; the VLAN must already have ports assigned to it prior to
enabling this feature.
• This feature is not supported on protocol-based VLANs in the Routing Switch.
• This feature is not supported on private VLANs.
• You cannot enable this feature on the designated management VLAN for the device.
• If you enable this feature on a VLAN that includes a trunk group, hardware flooding for Layer 2 multicast and
broadcast packets occurs only on the trunk group's primary port. Multicast and broadcast traffic for the other
ports in the trunk group is handled by software.

Configuring VLANs Using the Web Management Interface

Use the procedures in the following sections to configure VLANs using the Web management interface.

Configuring a Port-Based VLAN

1. Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for read-write access.
2. If you have not already enabled OSPF, enable it by clicking on the Enable radio button next to OSPF on the
System configuration dialog, then clicking Apply to apply the change.
3. Click on the plus sign next to Configure in the tree view to expand the list of configuration options.
