Use The Prosafe Plus Utility To Specify A Vlan For Igmp Snooping - NETGEAR PROSAFE XS716E User Manual

8-Port or 16-Port 10-Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit Smart Managed Plus Switch
Use the ProSAFE Plus Utility to specify a VLAN for IGMP
snooping
You can specify a VLAN for IGMP snooping only if you enabled port-based or 802.1Q-based
VLANs (see Chapter 5, Use VLANS for Traffic Segmentation).
To specify a VLAN for IGMP snooping:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired network connection, or connect directly to a switch that is
off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Double-click the ProSAFE Plus Utility icon.
The Switch Selection page displays a list of Web Managed switches that it discovers on
the local network.
3. Select the switch.
If you do not see the switch, click the REFRESH button.
4. Click the APPLY button.
You are asked to enter the password for the switch.
5. Enter the switch's password in the password field.
The switch's default password is password.
The Switch Status page displays.
6. Select System > Multicast.
7. Make sure that the IGMP Snooping Status Enable radio button is selected.
8. In the VLAN ID Enabled for IGMP Snooping field, enter the ID of the VLAN.
By default, if you enable IGMP snooping, snooping occurs on VLAN 1. However, you can
enable snooping on any VLAN:
• For port-based VLANs, you can enter a VLAN ID from 1 to 8 or 1 to 16, depending on
the switch model.
• For 802.1Q-based VLANs, you can enter a VLAN ID from 1 to 4094.
9. Click the APPLY button.
Your settings are saved.
