Dynamic When dynamic mode is enabled, the switch only forwards multicast streams which the source port has
dynamically joined. In other words, both the receiver port and source port must subscribe to a multicast group
before a multicast stream is forwarded to any attached client. Note that the requested streams are still restricted to
the address range which has been specified in a profile and bound to a domain.
4.2.14.2 Configure Domain
Switch Management > MVR For IPv4 >Configure Domain page is used to enable MVR globally on the switch, and select the
VLAN that will serve as the sole channel for common multicast streams supported by the service provider.
Domain ID An independent multicast domain. (Range: 1-5)
MVR Status When MVR is enabled on the switch, any multicast data associated with an MVR group is sent from all
designated source ports, to all receiver ports that have registered to receive data from that multicast group. (Default: Disabled)
MVR VLAN Identifier of the VLAN that serves as the channel for streaming multicast services using MVR. MVR source ports
should be configured as members of the MVR VLAN (see "Adding Static Members to VLANs" ), but MVR receiver ports should
not be manually configured as members of this VLAN. (Default: 1)
MVR Running Status Indicates whether or not all necessary conditions in the MVR environment are satisfied. Running
status is Active as long as MVR is enabled, the specified MVR VLAN exists, and a source port with a valid link has been
configured (see "Configuring MVR Interface Status" ).
MVR Current Learned Groups The number of MVR groups currently assigned to this domain.
Forwarding Priority The CoS priority assigned to all multicast traffic forwarded into this domain. (Range: 0-6, where 6 is
the highest priority) This parameter can be used to set a high priority for low-latency multicast traffic such as a video-conference,
or to set a low priority for normal multicast traffic not sensitive to latency.
Upstream Source IP The source IP address assigned to all MVR control packets sent upstream on the specified domain.
By default, all MVR reports sent upstream use a null source IP address.
