Use the Multicast > IGMP Snooping > IGMP Member (Add Static Member) page to statically assign a multicast service to an interface.
Multicast filtering can be dynamically configured using IGMP Snooping and IGMP Query messages. However, for certain applications that require tighter control, it may be necessary to statically configure a multicast service on the switch. First add all the ports attached to participating hosts to a common VLAN, and then assign the multicast service to that VLAN group.
Command Usage
Static multicast addresses are never aged out.
When a multicast address is assigned to an interface in a specific VLAN, the corresponding traffic can only be forwarded to ports within that VLAN.
Command Parameters
Specifies the VLAN which is to propagate the multicast service.
Activates the Port or Trunk scroll down list.
Specifies the interface assigned to a multicast group.
The IP address for a specific multicast service.
