Chapter 13 Multicast MVR allows one single multicast VLAN to be shared among different subscriber VLANs on the network. While isolated in different subscriber VLANs, connected devices can subscribe to and unsubscribe from the multicast stream in the multicast VLAN. This improves bandwidth utilization with reduced multicast traffic in the subscriber VLANs and simplifies multicast group management. MVR only responds to IGMP join and leave control messages from multicast groups that are configured under MVR. Join and leave reports from other multicast groups are managed by IGMP snooping. The following figure shows a network example. The subscriber VLAN (1, 2 and 3) information is hidden from the streaming media server, S. In addition, the multicast VLAN information is only visible to the Switch and S. Figure 34 MVR Network Example 13.5.1 Types of MVR Ports In MVR, a source port is a port on the Switch that can send and receive multicast traffic in a multicast VLAN while a receiver port can only receive multicast traffic. Once configured, the Switch maintains a forwarding table that matches the multicast stream to the associated multicast group. 13.5.2 MVR Modes You can set your Switch to operate in either dynamic or compatible mode. In dynamic mode, the Switch sends IGMP leave and join reports to the other multicast devices (such as multicast routers or servers) in the multicast VLAN. This allows the multicast devices to update the multicast forwarding table to forward or not forward multicast traffic to the receiver ports. In compatible mode, the Switch does not send any IGMP reports. In this case, you must manually configure the forwarding settings on the multicast devices in the multicast VLAN. 13.5.3 How MVR Works The following figure shows a multicast television example where a subscriber device (such as a computer) in VLAN 1 receives multicast traffic from the streaming media server, S, via the Switch. Multiple subscriber devices can connect through a port configured as the receiver on the Switch. 78 ES-315/ES-315-F User's Guide

MVR Network Example

13.5.1

Types of MVR Ports

In MVR, a source port is a port on the Switch that can send and receive multicast traffic in a

multicast VLAN while a receiver port can only receive multicast traffic. Once configured, the

Switch maintains a forwarding table that matches the multicast stream to the associated

multicast group.

13.5.2

MVR Modes

You can set your Switch to operate in either dynamic or compatible mode.

In dynamic mode, the Switch sends IGMP leave and join reports to the other multicast devices

(such as multicast routers or servers) in the multicast VLAN. This allows the multicast devices

to update the multicast forwarding table to forward or not forward multicast traffic to the

receiver ports.

In compatible mode, the Switch does not send any IGMP reports. In this case, you must

manually configure the forwarding settings on the multicast devices in the multicast VLAN.

13.5.3

How MVR Works

The following figure shows a multicast television example where a subscriber device (such as

a computer) in VLAN 1 receives multicast traffic from the streaming media server,

, via the

Switch. Multiple subscriber devices can connect through a port configured as the receiver on

the Switch.
