Multicast VLAN Registration for IPv4

46

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.

Interface

To configure settings for an MVR domain:

1. Click Multicast, MVR.

2. Select Configure Domain from the Step list.

3. Select a domain from the scroll-down list.

4. Enable MVR for the selected domain, select the MVR VLAN, set the forwarding priority to be

assigned to all ingress multicast traffic, and set the source IP address for all control packets
sent upstream as required.

5. Click Apply.

Command Usage

Use the Configure Profile page to statically configure all multicast group addresses that will join
the MVR VLAN. Any multicast data associated with an MVR group is sent from all source ports
to all receiver ports that have registered to receive data from that multicast group.
