The options are as follows: - Static - Attaches the interface to the Multicast group as a static member. - Forbidden - Forbidden interfaces are not included the Multicast group, even if IGMP snooping designated the interface to join a Multicast group. - Excluded - The interface is not part of a Multicast group. - Dynamic - Attaches the interface or LAG dynamically to the Multicast group. STEP 3 Define the relevant fields. STEP 4 Click Apply. The device is updated. Defining Unregistered Multicast Settings Multicast frames are generally forwarded to all ports in the VLAN. If IGMP Snooping is enabled, the device learns about the existence of Multicast groups and monitors which ports have joined what Multicast group. Multicast groups can also be statically enabled. This enables the device to forward the Multicast frames (from a registered Multicast group) only to ports that are registered to that Multicast group.
