● A multicast address can be set from 225.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255. Do not set the
same multicast address for different devices on the same system.
● To view VN-C11 images in the multicast mode through a router, an operating environment or
a router setting is required as follows:
1 The router supports IGMP Ver. 2 and is synchronized with the starting and stopping of
multicast transmission. And the route setting can be dynamically changed.
2 If the router does not support IGMP Ver. 2, a static route for multicast must be set to the
router.
