Bridging – Multicast Addresses

The Multicast Addresses tab under the Bridging category will display a list of Multicast Group Addresses

that are associated with respective port numbers. This may be used to statically assign a Multicast Group

Address access to a group of ports on the switch.

Following the Add button on the page above, the administrator must enter a valid Multicast Group Address

and associate it with a port number or list on the switch. Once the administrator clicks on the Add button,

the changes will take effect instantly.

Note: If there are multiple ports on different VLANs, the 708 will apply the static multicast address to the

lowest VLAN-ID that is associated with one of the ports assigned to the static multicast address. So

if the lowest VLAN-ID contains all the ports assigned to the static multicast address (an umbrella

VLAN), it will function for all those ports with no problems. This can be achieved with overlapping

VLANs.
