Do as follows on the multicast switch:
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
interface interface-type interface-number
The interface view is displayed.
The interface can be a VLANIF interface, or an Loopback interface.
Step 3 Run:
multicast boundary group-address { mask | mask-length }
The multicast forwarding boundary is configured.

Data
Group address, mask, and mask length of the multicast forwarding boundary
Run the following commands to check the multicast routing table.
– display multicast routing-table [ group-address [ mask { group-mask | group-mask-
length } ] | source-address [ mask { source-mask | source-mask-length } ] | incoming-
interface { interface-type interface-number | register } | outgoing-interface
{ include | exclude | match } { interface-type interface-number | register | none } ]
[ outgoing-interface-number [ number ] ]
