Blocking Unknown Multicast Traffic

When certain multicast traffic comes to a port and the McFDB has no forwarding informa-
tion for the traffic, the multicast traffic is flooded to all ports by default. You can configure
the switch not to flood unknown multicast traffic. To configure the switch not to flood un-
known multicast traffic, use the following command.
Command
ip unknown-multicast
[ port PORTS ] block
no ip unknown-multicast [ port
PORTS ] block
This command should not be used for the ports to which a multicast router is attached!
