L2 Multicast service is based on L2 switch receiving a single packet addressed to a specific Multicast address. Multicast forwarding creates copies of the packet, and transmits the packets to the relevant ports. The device supports: • Forwarding L2 Multicast Packets - Enabled by default, and not configurable. NOTE: The system supports Multicast filtering for 63 Multicast groups. • Filtering L2 Multicast Packets - Enables forwarding of Layer 2 packets to interfaces. If Multicast filtering is disabled, Multicast packets are flooded to all relevant ports. To open the Multicast Support page, click Switch→Multicast Support in the tree view.
