  • Page 62: Multicast

    Managed Ethernet Switch (UI_2.0_FW_5.x) Featured Functions Multicast Multicast filtering improves the performance of networks that carry multicast traffic. This section explains multicasts, multicast filtering, and how multicast filtering can be implemented on your Moxa switch. The Concept of Multicast Filtering What is an IP Multicast? A multicast is a packet sent by one host to multiple hosts.
  • Page 63 Managed Ethernet Switch (UI_2.0_FW_5.x) Featured Functions Network without multicast filtering All hosts receive the multicast traffic, even if they don’t need it. Network with multicast filtering Hosts only receive dedicated traffic from other hosts belonging to the same group. Multicast Filtering and Moxa’s Industrial Rackmount Switches There are three ways to achieve multicast filtering with a Moxa switch: IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) Snooping, GMRP (GARP Multicast Registration Protocol), and adding a static multicast MAC manually to filter multicast traffic automatically.
  • Page 64: Igmp Multicast Filtering

    Managed Ethernet Switch (UI_2.0_FW_5.x) Featured Functions IGMP Multicast Filtering IGMP is used by IP-supporting network devices to register hosts with multicast groups.

    NOTE Access Control Lists are available in Moxa Layer 3 switches and the following layer 2 switches: EDS-528E, EDS-518E. EDS-G508E, EDS-G512E, EDS-G516E, and EDS-G512E-8PoE. Layer 2 switches only support Ingress ACL. Access control lists (ACLs) increase the flexibility and security of networking management. ACLs provide traffic filtering capabilities for ingress and egress packets.
  • Page 96 Managed Ethernet Switch (UI_2.0_FW_5.x) Featured Functions How an ACL Works The ACL working structure is based on access lists. Each access list is a filter. When a packet enters into or exits from a switch, the ACL will compare the packet to the rules in the access lists, starting from the first rule. If a packet is rejected or accepted by the first rule, the switch will drop or pass this packet directly without checking the rest of the lower-priority rules.
  • Page 97 Managed Ethernet Switch (UI_2.0_FW_5.x) Featured Functions • ACL ID: The ACL checking sequence is based on these IDs. Smaller ID numbers have a higher priority for packet filtering. If a packet is filtered by an access control profile with a higher priority, those access control profiles with a lower priority will not be executed.
