Application Example for Multicast VLAN:

 Network Requirements

Multicast source sends multicast streams via the router, and the streams are transmitted to user A

and user B through the switch.

Router: Its WAN port is connected to the multicast source; its LAN port is connected to the switch.

The multicast packets are transmitted in VLAN3.

Switch: Port 3 is connected to the router and the packets are transmitted in VLAN3; port 4 is

connected to user A and the packets are transmitted in VLAN4; port 5 is connected to user B and

the packets are transmitted in VLAN5.

User A: Connected to Port 4 of the switch.

User B: Connected to port 5 of the switch.
