Configuring IP Multicast

The Multicast Admin Boundary Configuration page contains the following fields:

Group — Select Create Boundary from the drop-down menu to create a new admin scope boundary,

or select one of the existing boundary specifications to display or update its configuration.

Interface — Select the router interface for which the administratively scoped boundary is to be

configured.

Group IP — Enter the multicast group address for the start of the range of addresses to be excluded.

The address must be in the range of 239.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255.

Group Mask — Enter the mask to be applied to the multicast group address. The combination of the

mask and the Group IP gives the range of administratively scoped addresses for the selected interface.
