Static Multicast Router
A static multicast router (Mrouter) can be configured for a particular port on a particular VLAN. A
static Mrouter does not have to be learned through IGMP Snooping.
A total of 16 static Mrouters can be configured on the GbE2c. Downlink and uplink ports can accept
a static Mrouter, but managment ports cannot.
Note – Even when static Mrouters are configured, the switch continues to learn dynamic Mrouters
through IGMP Snooping.
Following is an example of configuring a static multicast router:
1. Configure a port to which the static Multicast Router is connected, and enter the appropriate VLAN.
2. Apply, verify, and save the configuration.
3. Once configuration is complete, you can view dynamic IGMP information using the following
commands:
>> /cfg/l3/igmp/mrouter (Select IGMP Mrouter menu)
>> Static Multicast Router# add 20 (Add Static Mrouter port 20)
Enter VLAN number: (1-4094) 1 (Enter the VLAN number)
Enter the version number of mrouter [1|2|3]: 2 (Enter IGMP version number)
>> Static Multicast Router# apply (Apply the configuration)
>> Static Multicast Router# cur (View the configuration)
>> Static Multicast Router# save (Save your changes)
