packets from the VAP which has at least one client joined the multicast group. This is done
because the wireless media is a broadcast media. It does not need to be sent multiple
times when there are more than one registered clients.
When IGMP Snooping is turned on, multicast packets should be dropped at the VAP exit if
there is no client from the VAP who has joined the corresponding multicast group.
The IGMP snooping forwarding table (port and multicast MAC address mapping table)
should support aging mechanism to age out the entry which has no multicast traffic for a
period of time (120 seconds in A8Ein).
The default setting of the IGMP Snooping is “Disabled”.
Multicast TrafficDefault setting is "Enabled ". If set to "Enabled", the system allows multicast
traffic in all VAPs. If set to "Disabled", all multicast traffic in all VAPs will be dropped.
A8Ein supports “Multicast Traffic Data Rate Setting” to transmit all multicast traffic of the 2.4G
interface at the configured multicast data rate. The multicast data rate must be set to any of the basic
data rates. Default setting is 1 Mbps
