ERVICES

Use the Multicast > IGMP Snooping > IGMP Member (Add Static Member)

page to statically assign a multicast service to an interface.

Multicast filtering can be dynamically configured using IGMP Snooping and

IGMP Query messages (see

"Configuring IGMP Snooping and Query

Parameters" on page 444

). However, for certain applications that require

tighter control, it may be necessary to statically configure a multicast

service on the switch. First add all the ports attached to participating hosts

to a common VLAN, and then assign the multicast service to that VLAN

group.
