either that are forbidden from joining dynamically, or that can join the multicast group dynamically, using
GMRP.

Forward Unregistered Groups - This will instruct the Switch to forward a multicast packet whose
destination is an unregistered multicast group residing within the range of ports specified above.
Filter Unregistered Groups - This will instruct the Switch to filter any multicast packets whose
destination is an unregistered multicast group residing within the range of ports specified above.
QoS > Traffic Control
The Traffic Control feature provides the ability to control the receive rate of broadcast, multicast, and

the Switch until the storm has subsided.
