3.1.3.6 Static FDB Multicast
This menu option allows multicast users to be added manually by including them in a
static multicast table. It is simpler, more reliable and faster than dynamic multicast and
does not require the use of protocols. The multicast data is forwarded depending on what
is configured in the static multicast table. Static multicast communication cannot be used
simultaneously with IGMP.
Firstly, enable the FDB Multicast status and select <Apply>. Enter the MAC address,
VLAN ID and select the ports to add to the static multicast address, select <Apply> to
finish. To change any settings select the item in the Static FDB Multicast list and modify
or delete as appropriate.
Note : IGMP Snooping must be disabled before static FDB multicast is enabled.
