Figure 6-22. Static Multicast Filtering Table Configuration
screen
To make a change to the Static Multicast Filtering Table, choose
Add or Remove in the Action field. Then enter the MAC Address
and the member port numbers in the desired fields, for example
Master and Slave 1 if there are two Switches in your stack. Press
APPLY to put the changes into effect.
Configure IGMP
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) allows multicasting on
your network. When IP Multicast Filtering is enabled, the Switch
can intelligently forward (rather that broadcast) IGMP queries and
reports sent between devices connected to the Switch and an IGMP-
enabled device hosting IGMP on your network.
Basically, in these submenus you define whether the Switch can
intelligently forward IGMP packets, and you must also define which
802.1Q VLANs (if present) can send and receive IGMP and Multicast
packets.
