18.4 IGMP Filtering Profile

IGMP filter profiles allow you to control access to IGMP multicast groups. This allows you to
have a service available to a specific IGMP multicast group. You can configure an IGMP filter
profile for an IGMP multicast group that has access to a service (like a SIP server for
example). Within a profile, configure an IGMP filter to specify the multicast IP address
ranges. Then assign the IGMP filter profile to the ports (in the Multicast Setting screen) that
are allowed to use the service.
Click Advanced Applications and Multicast in the navigation panel. Click the Multicast
Setting link and then the IGMP Filtering Profile link to display the screen as shown.
