Usage
For multicast mode of NLB, to associate an IP address with a multicast MAC
Information
address in the switch, use address resolution protocol (ARP) by entering the arp
ip-address multicast-mac-address command in Global configuration
mode. This setting causes the multicast MAC address to be mapped to the cluster
IP address for NLB mode of operation of the switch.
You cannot use Class D or Class E IP addresses or zero IP address (0.0.0.0) when
creating a static ARP. Zero MAC addresses (00:00:00:00:00:00) are also invalid.
