remaining subscribers for that multicast group before removing the
port from the group list.
■
Using immediate leave can speed up leave latency, but should only
be enabled on a port attached to one multicast subscriber to avoid
disrupting services to other group members attached to the same
interface.
■
Immediate leave does not apply to multicast groups which have
been statically assigned to a port.
P ARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed:
◆ Domain ID – An independent multicast domain. (Range: 1-5)
◆ Port – Port identifier.
◆ Type – The following interface types are supported:
■
Source – An uplink port that can send and receive multicast data
for the groups assigned to the MVR VLAN. Note that the source port
must be manually configured as a member of the MVR VLAN (see
"Adding Static Members to VLANs" on page 202 ).
■
Receiver – A subscriber port that can receive multicast data sent
through the MVR VLAN. Any port configured as an receiver port will
be dynamically added to the MVR VLAN when it forwards an IGMP
report or join message from an attached host requesting any of the
designated multicast services supported by the MVR VLAN. Just
remember that only IGMP version 2 or 3 hosts can issue multicast
join or leave messages. If MVR must be configured for an IGMP
version 1 host, the multicast groups must be statically assigned
(see "Assigning Static MVR Multicast Groups to Interfaces" on
page 564 ).
■
Non-MVR – An interface that does not participate in the MVR VLAN.
(This is the default type.)
◆ Forwarding Status – Shows if MVR traffic is being forwarded or
discarded.
◆ MVR Status – Shows the MVR status. MVR status for source ports is
“Active” if MVR is globally enabled on the switch. MVR status for
receiver ports is “Active” only if there are subscribers receiving
multicast traffic from one of the MVR groups, or a multicast group has
been statically assigned to an interface.
◆ Immediate Leave – Configures the switch to immediately remove an
interface from a multicast stream as soon as it receives a leave
message for that group. (This option only applies to an interface
configured as an MVR receiver.)
