Static Router Ports: Specify the static router port which is mainly used in the network with stable topology. Note: 1. The router port should be in the multicast VLAN, otherwise the member ports cannot receive multicast streams. 2. The Multicast VLAN won't take effect unless you first complete the configuration for the corresponding VLAN owning the port on the 802.1Q VLAN page. 3. Configure the link type of the router port in the multicast VLAN as Tagged otherwise all the member ports in the multicast VLAN cannot receive multicast streams. 4. After a multicast VLAN is created, all the IGMP packets will be processed only within the multicast VLAN. Configuration procedure: Step Operation 1 Enable IGMP snooping function 2 Create a multicast VLAN 3 Configure parameters for multicast VLAN 4 Look over the configuration Description Required. Enable IGMP snooping globally on the switch and for the port on Multicast→IGMP Snooping→Snooping Config and Port Config page. Required. Create a multicast VLAN and add all the member ports and router ports to the VLAN on the VLAN→802.1Q VLAN→VLAN Config page. Configure the link type of the router ports as Tagged. Required. Enable and configure a multicast VLAN on the Multicast→IGMP Snooping→Multicast VLAN page. It is recommended to keep the default time parameters. If it is successfully configured, the VLAN ID of the multicast VLAN will be displayed in the IGMP Snooping Status table on the Multicast→IGMP Snooping→Snooping Config page. Application Example for Multicast VLAN: Network Requirements Multicast source sends multicast streams via the router, and the streams are transmitted to user A and user B through the switch. Router: Its WAN port is connected to the multicast source; its LAN port is connected to the switch. The multicast packets are transmitted in VLAN3. Switch: Port 3 is connected to the router and the packets are transmitted in VLAN3; port 4 is connected to user A and the packets are transmitted in VLAN4; port 5 is connected to user B and the packets are transmitted in VLAN5. User A: Connected to Port 4 of the switch. User B: Connected to port 5 of the switch. Configure a multicast VLAN, and user A and B receive multicast streams through the multicast VLAN. 118
