CONFIGURING MVR
GROUP ADDRESS
PROFILES
Use the Multicast > MVR (Configure Profile and Associate Profile) pages to
assign the multicast group address for required services to one or more
MVR domains.
CLI REFERENCES
"MVR for IPv4" on page 1478
COMMAND USAGE
Use the Configure Profile page to statically configure all multicast group
addresses that will join the MVR VLAN. Any multicast data associated
with an MVR group is sent from all source ports to all receiver ports that
have registered to receive data from that multicast group.
The IP address range from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 is used for
multicast streams. MVR group addresses cannot fall within the reserved
IP multicast address range of 224.0.0.x.
IGMP snooping and MVR share a maximum number of 1024 groups.
Any multicast streams received in excess of this limitation will be
flooded to all ports in the associated domain.
