sent to this multicast group.
Configure MVR IP multicast group address(es) in the Group Configuration screen. Click
Group Configuration in the MVR screen.

Mode

Specify the MVR mode on the switch. Choices are Dynamic and Compatible.
Select Dynamic to send IGMP reports to all MVR source ports in the multicast

VLAN.
Select Compatible to set the switch not to send IGMP reports.

Port

This field displays the port number on the switch.

*

Settings in this row apply to all ports.
Use this row only if you want to make some settings the same for all ports. Use this

row first to set the common settings and then make adjustments on a port-by-port

basis.

Select this option to set this port as the MVR source port that sends and receives

traffic. A receiver port cannot belong to a multicast VLAN.

None

Select this option to set the port not to participate in MVR. No MVR multicast traffic

is sent or received on this port.

Tagging

Select this checkbox if you want the port to tag the VLAN ID in all outgoing frames

transmitted.

Add

navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are

done configuring.

Click Cancel to discard all changes.
