Configuration > IGMP Snooping With Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping, the Web-Smart Switch can make intelligent multicast forwarding decisions by examining the contents of each frame's Layer 2 MAC header. IGMP snooping can help reduce cluttered traffic on the LAN. With IGMP snooping enabled globally, the Web-Smart Switch will forward multicast traffic only to connections that have group members attached. Please note that IGMP will not alter or route IP multicast packets. To send IP multicast packets across subnetworks a multicast routing protocol will be necessary. 31

Configuration
D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual
3 and 4 groups are incapable of sharing information with each other. Click
Example
to see the example to
configure asymmetric VLAN in larger networks.
Configuration > 802.1Q Management VLAN
802.1Q Management VLAN setting allows you to transfer the authority of the switch from the default VLAN to
others created by users. Doing so makes managing the whole network more flexible.
By default, the Management VLAN is disabled. You can select any existing VLAN as the management VLAN
when this function is enabled.
Figure 54 – Configuration > 802.1Q Management VLAN
Configuration > Trunking
The Trunking function enables the cascading of two or more ports for a combined larger bandwidth. Up to six
Trunk groups may be created, each supporting up to 8 ports. Add a
Trunking Name
and select the ports to
be trunked together, and click
Apply
to activate the selected Trunking groups.
Figure 55 – Configuration > Trunking
NOTE:
Each combined trunk port must be
connected to devices within the same VLAN
group.
Configuration > IGMP Snooping
With Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping, the Web-Smart Switch can make intelligent
multicast forwarding decisions by examining the contents of each frame’s Layer 2 MAC header.
IGMP snooping can help reduce cluttered traffic on the LAN. With IGMP snooping enabled globally, the
Web-Smart Switch will forward multicast traffic only to connections that have group members attached.
Please note that IGMP will not alter or route IP multicast packets. To send IP multicast packets across
subnetworks a multicast routing protocol will be necessary.
