Viewing the Virtual Interface of Multicast VLANs

You can view the multicast

VLAN

membership of each virtual interface in the switch. In most

cases the virtual interface is the same as a virtual port. However, when multiple services are
set up for a virtual port, then each service may be split into one or more instances.

Type

vimcvl

and a Virtual Interface Table displays similar to the one that follows. You can also

specify just the slot and port number to narrow the range of ports displayed.

Slot/Intf/Service/Instance

. Specifies the virtual interface for which multicast

VLAN

information

will be displayed. The

Slot

is the physical slot location to which the virtual interface maps.

The

Intf

is the physical port to which the virtual interface maps. The

Service

is the service type

for this interface. The service type may be a Router (

Rtr

), Bridge (

Brg

), Classical IP (

CIP

),

FDDI

Trunk (

Trk

), or an 802.10 Trunk (

T10

).

Instance

is the specific instance of this service type.

These different instances are identified numerically. The first instance of a service type
belonging to a physical port is identified as 1, the second instance is identified as 2, etc.

Group.

The Group to which this virtual interface is assigned. The Group is specified when first

creating a multicast

VLAN

.

Member of VLAN #

. The multicast

VLAN

s to which this virtual interface belongs. An interface

may belong to more than one multicast

VLAN

. For example, if you set up a multicast

VLAN

for

CNN

News and another for

NBC

News, you may want certain ports to receive both multicast

traffic streams.
