Modular Ethernet Switch User's Guide Figure 7-19. Static Multicast Filtering --- Edit window To edit or create a new filter, enter the multicast MAC address in the Multicast MAC Address field, and select the desired VID (if VLANs are enabled) and ports which will receive the multicast packets. Click Apply to activate the filter. You must enter a valid multicast MAC Address. If you fail to do so and click the Apply button, you will return to the multicast filtering table, but your entry will not appear there. The VID option will only appear on screen if 802.1Q or Port-based VLANs are enabled. IGMP Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping allows the Switch to recognize IGMP queries and reports sent between network stations or devices and an IGMP router. IGMP is used for managing IP multicast groups. The Switch will send IGMP query messages and get the IGMP response from hosts to "learn" the source port members of that multicast address. When a multicast address is received and found on the IGMP address table, it will be multicast to those port members. 92 Web-Based Network Management
