Multicast groups can be statically assigned to a receiver port using this

configuration page.

The IP address range from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 is used for

multicast streams. MVR group addresses cannot fall within the reserved

IP multicast address range of 224.0.0.x.

Only IGMP version 2 or 3 hosts can issue multicast join or leave

messages. If MVR must be configured for an IGMP version 1 host, the

multicast groups must be statically assigned.
