45.1 Multicast Overview

This chapter shows you how to configure various multicast features.
Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two ways
or Broadcast (one sender to everybody on the network). Multicast delivers IP packets to just a group of
hosts on the network.
IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to establish membership
in a multicast group
information on IGMP versions 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
45.1.1 What You Can Do – IPv4 Multicast
• Use the IPv4 Multicast Status screen
information.
• Use the IGMP Snooping screen
multicast traffic only to ports that are members of that group.
• Use the IGMP Snooping VLAN screen
• Use the IGMP Filtering Profile
clients connected to the Switch are able to join.
45.1.2 What You Can Do – IPv6 Multicast
• Use the IPv6 Multicast Status screen
information.
• Use the MLD Snooping-proxy screen
group changes to a connected multicast router and forward MLD messages to other upstream ports.
• Use the MLD Snooping-proxy VLAN screen
snooping-proxy settings on the VLANs you specified.
• Use the MLD Snooping-proxy Port Role Setting screen
snooping-proxy port roles and configure Leave settings for each port.
• Use the MLD Snooping-proxy Filtering screen
MLD snooping-proxy filtering.
• Use the MLD Snooping-proxy Filtering Profile screen
