Multicast VLAN Registration

mvr

This section describes commands used to configure Multicast VLAN Registration
(MVR). A single network-wide VLAN can be used to transmit multicast traffic (such
as television channels) across a service provider's network. Any multicast traffic
entering an MVR VLAN is sent to all subscribers. This can significantly reduce to
processing overhead required to dynamically monitor and establish the
distribution tree for a normal multicast VLAN. Also note that MVR maintains the
user isolation and data security provided by VLAN segregation by passing only
multicast traffic into other VLANs to which the subscribers belong.

Table 104: Multicast VLAN Registration Commands

Command
mvr
mvr immediate-leave
mvr type
mvr vlan group
show mvr
This command enables Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) globally on the switch,
statically configures MVR multicast group IP address(es) using the group keyword,
or specifies the MVR VLAN identifier using the vlan keyword. Use the no form of
this command without any keywords to globally disable MVR. Use the no form with
the group keyword to remove a specific address or range of addresses. Or use the
no form with the vlan keyword to restore the default MVR VLAN.
Syntax
[no] mvr [group ip-address [count] | vlan vlan-id]
group - Defines a multicast service sent to all attached subscribers.
ip-address - IP address for an MVR multicast group.
(Range: 224.0.1.0 - 239.255.255.255)
count - The number of contiguous MVR group addresses. (Range: 1-1024)
vlan - Specifies the VLAN through which MVR multicast data is received.
This is also the VLAN to which all source ports must be assigned.
vlan-id - MVR VLAN ID (Range: 1-4093)
Function
Globally enables MVR, statically configures MVR group
address(es), or specifies the MVR VLAN identifier
Enables immediate leave capability
Configures an interface as an MVR receiver or source port
Statically binds a multicast group to a port
Shows information about the global MVR configuration
settings, interfaces attached to the MVR VLAN, or the
