Assigning Ports to Multicast Services

Multicast filtering can be dynamically configured using IGMP Snooping
and IGMP Query messages as described in "Layer 2 IGMP (Snooping and
Query)" on page 3-199. For certain applications that require tighter
control, you may need to statically configure a multicast service on the
switch. First add all the ports attached to participating hosts to a common
VLAN, and then assign the multicast service to that VLAN group.
Command Usage
• Static multicast addresses are never aged out.
• When a multicast address is assigned to specific VLAN, the
corresponding traffic can only be forwarded to ports within that
VLAN.
Command Attributes
• Interface – Activates the Port or Trunk scroll down list.
• VLAN ID – Selects the VLAN to propagate all multicast traffic
coming from the attached multicast router/switch.
• Multicast IP – The IP address for a specific multicast service.
• Port or Trunk – Specifies the interface attached to a multicast router.
