Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) multicast mode: The switch sends packets only out of
•
the ports that connect to the cluster members rather than all ports.
NOTE:
A7500 can work with the NLB of Windows Server.
•
Multicast ARP is applicable to only multicast-mode NLB.
•
•
For more information about NLB, see the related documents of Windows Sever.
Follow these steps to configure multicast ARP:
To do...
Disable the ARP entry check function
Configure a static ARP entry
Configure a static multicast MAC
address entry
NOTE:
When configuring multicast ARP, use the interfaces on the EB or SD card of the switch to connect to hosts
and servers.
Displaying and maintaining ARP
To do...
Display ARP entries in the ARP
table (in standalone mode)
Display ARP entries in the ARP
table (in IRF mode)
Display the ARP entry for a
specified IP address (in standalone
mode)
Display the ARP entry for a
specified IP address (in IRF mode)
Use the command...
undo arp check enable
arp static ip-address mac-address
vlan-id interface-type
interface-number [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
mac-address multicast mac-address
interface interface-list vlan vlan-id
Use the command...
display arp [ [ all | dynamic | static ] [ slot
slot-number ] | vlan vlan-id | interface
interface-type interface-number ] [ count |
verbose ] [ | { begin | exclude | include }
regular-expression ]
display arp [ [ all | dynamic | static ]
[ chassis chassis-number slot slot-number ] |
vlan vlan-id | interface interface-type
interface-number ] [ count | verbose ] [ |
{ begin | exclude | include }
regular-expression ]
display arp ip-address [ slot slot-number ]
[ verbose ] [ | { begin | exclude | include }
regular-expression ]
display arp ip-address [ chassis
