700 Series Software Manual v2.1 = The Ethernet interface associated with the MAC address you specified. The interface number is expressed in x/y format, where x is the stack number (always 1 in the case with FSM726), and y is the port number. Multicast-Static You can use this menu to configure permanently reachable multicast groups. The Static Multicast command let you create individual groups by entering the MAC address of static group Syntax FSM726(config)# mac-address-table multicast-static ethernet Where = the MAC address you wish to place into the static multicast group. = the Ethernet interface associated with the static multicast group. For example, if you want to add port 5 to static multicast group aa:aa:aa:10:30:3f, the command to do so would be FSM726(config)# mac-address-table multicast static aa:aa:aa:10:30:3f ethernet 1/5 Disable The disable command disables the switch's dynamic address learning capability. Syntax FSM726(config)# mac-address-table disable Multimedia In networks where multimedia applications generate multicast traffic, Internet Group Multicast Protocol (IGMP) can greatly reduce unnecessary bandwidth usage by limiting traffic forwarding that is otherwise broadcast to the whole network to only those ports that need it. Enabling IGMP will allow the switch to detect IGMP queries, report packets, and manage IP multicast traffic through the switch. 6-22 Command Line Interface

Command Line Interface
<ethernet interface number>
= The Ethernet interface associated with the MAC address
you specified. The interface number is expressed in x/y format, where x is the stack number
(always 1 in the case with FSM726), and y is the port number.
Multicast-Static
You can use this menu to configure permanently reachable multicast groups. The
Static
Multicast
command let you create individual groups by entering the MAC address of static
group
Syntax
FSM726(config)# mac-address-table multicast-static <mac-address> ethernet <interface
number>
Where
<mac-address>
= the MAC address you wish to place into the static multicast group.
<interface number>
= the Ethernet interface associated with the static multicast group.
For example, if you want to add port 5 to static multicast group aa:aa:aa:10:30:3f, the command to
do so would be
FSM726(config)# mac-address-table multicast static aa:aa:aa:10:30:3f ethernet 1/5
Disable
The
disable
command disables the switch’s dynamic address learning capability.
Syntax
FSM726(config)# mac-address-table disable
Multimedia
In networks where multimedia applications generate multicast traffic, Internet Group Multicast
Protocol (IGMP) can greatly reduce unnecessary bandwidth usage by limiting traffic forwarding
that is otherwise broadcast to the whole network to only those ports that need it. Enabling IGMP
will allow the switch to detect IGMP queries, report packets, and manage IP multicast traffic
through the switch.
