Multicast VLAN configuration examples
This section provides examples of configuring multicast VLANs.
Sub-VLAN-based multicast VLAN configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 112, Router A and Router B are routers installed with the SAP modules. IGMPv2 runs
on Layer 3 device Router A, and IGMPv2 snooping runs on Layer 2 device Router B. Router A acts as the
IGMP querier.
The multicast source sends multicast data to the multicast group 224.1.1.1. Host A, Host B, and Host C are
receivers. They belong to VLAN 2 through VLAN 4, respectively.
Configure the sub-VLAN-based multicast VLAN feature on Router B so that Router A just sends the
multicast data to Router B through the multicast VLAN and Router B forwards the multicast data to the
receivers in different VLANs.
