Chapter 25 | Multicast Filtering Commands
MVR for IPv4
– 734 –
Command Usage
◆ By default, the switch forwards any multicast streams within the address range
set by a profile, and bound to a domain. The multicast streams are sent to all
source ports on the switch and to all receiver ports that have elected to receive
data on that multicast address.
◆ When the mvr source-port-mode dynamic command is used, the switch only
forwards multicast streams which the source port has dynamically joined. In
other words, both the receiver port and source port must subscribe to a
multicast group before a multicast stream is forwarded to any attached client.
Note that the requested streams are still restricted to the address range which
has been specified in a profile and bound to a domain.
Example
Console(config)#mvr source-port-mode dynamic
Console(config)#
mvr upstream-
source-ip
This command configures the source IP address assigned to all MVR control packets
