7.8 MVR
Use the MVR (Multicast VLAN Registration) sub-menu to enable multicast listeners in one VLAN to join or leave multicast groups on another
VLAN. For example in a multicast television application, content is multicasted to the multicast VLAN in the network core. Subscribers are con-
nected to access switches at the network edge and belong to subscriber VLANs. Access switches are connected to the network core via their
uplink ports. These uplink ports are called MVR source ports because they send and receive multicast data to and from the multicast VLAN. When
a subscriber selects a TV channel, the access switch forwards the subscriber's IGMP join message to the multicast VLAN and begins selectively
forwarding multicast content to the subscriber.
