Configuring Suppression on the Multicast Source Port

Only the S3100-EI series support multicast source port suppression.

Some users may deploy unauthorized multicast servers on the network. This affects the use of network

bandwidth and transmission of multicast data of authorized users by taking network resources. You can

configure multicast source port suppression on certain ports to prevent unauthorized multicast servers

attached to these ports from sending multicast traffic to the network.
