Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) can route packets received in a multicast source VLAN to
one or more desination VLANs. LAN users are in the destination VLANs and the multicast
server is in the source VLAN.
MVR can continuously send multicast stream for traffic in the multicast VLAN, but isolate the
streams from the source VLANs for bandwidth and security reasons.
In general, MVR is able to:
 Identify the MVR IP multicast streams and their associated IP multicast group.
 Intercept the IGMP messages

This page allows the network administrator to configure general settings for MVR, such as
enabling function, selecting VLAN ID (as source VLAN) and specify IP address(es) for
receiver/LAN users.
Available settings are explained as follows:
Item Description

source VLAN which will receive multicast data. All source
ports must belong to this VLAN. The default is VLAN 1.
Note: Each VLAN ID shall be configured with group address
and member port (defined in MVR>>Group Address page).
Mode There are two modes offered for MVR operation.
Comaptible – Multicast data received by MVR hosts
(multicast server) will be forwarded to all MVR receiver
ports.
Dynamic – Multicast data received by MVR hosts (multicast
server) on Vigor switch will be forwarded from those MVR
data and client ports grouped under MVR server.
