    GS716T and GS724T Gigabit Smart Switches MMRP allows for the propagation MAC address information in the network, and allows for the registration and deregistration of both individual MAC address information and group MAC address membership. End stations may request to join or leave a multicast group, or to register an individual MAC address with a specific VLAN.
  • Page 6 GS716T and GS724T Gigabit Smart Switches To configure the MRP settings: Enable or disable MMRP globally on the switch. MMRP provides an application to register MAC address information. The default mode is Disable. Enable or disable MSRP globally on the switch. MSRP provides an application to register bandwidth requirement for a given AV stream.
