VES-1616F/1624F-44 User’s Guide Without IGMP snooping, multicast traffic is treated in the same manner as broadcast traffic, you can configure the switch to forward or discard unknown multicast group traffic. With IGMP snooping, group multicast traffic is only forwarded to ports that are members of that group.

VES-1616F/1624F-44 User’s Guide H A P T E R Multicast VLAN Registration This chapter introduces and shows you how to configure Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR). 23.1 MVR Overview Multicast VLAN Registration is designed for applications (such as Media-on-Demand (MoD)) that use multicast traffic across a service provider network. MVR allows one single multicast VLAN to be shared among different subscriber VLANs on the network.
VES-1616F/1624F-44 User’s Guide In dynamic mode, the switch sends IGMP leave and join reports to the other multicast devices (such as multicast routers or servers) in the multicast VLAN. This allows the multicast devices to update the multicast forwarding table to forward or not forward multicast traffic to the receiver ports.
VES-1616F/1624F-44 User’s Guide Note: You can create up to three multicast VLANs and up to 266 multicast rules on the switch. Your switch automatically creates a static VLAN (with the same VID) when you create a multicast VLAN in this screen. Figure 82 MVR The following table describes the related labels in this screen.
