Configuring Static Member Port For A Multicast Group - 3Com 5500-EI PWR Install Manual

If the function of dropping unknown multicast packets or the XRN fabric function is enabled, you
cannot enable unknown multicast flooding suppression.
Unknown multicast flooding suppression and multicast source port suppression cannot take effect
at the same time. If both are enabled, only multicast source port suppression takes effect. In this
case, multicast data received on the blocked port will be dropped.

Configuring Static Member Port for a Multicast Group

If the host connected to a port is interested in the multicast data for a specific group, you can configure
that port as a static member port for that multicast group.
