Parameters
These parameters are displayed:

Domain ID– An independent multicast domain. (Range: 1-5)

MVR Status – When MVR is enabled on the switch, any multicast data associated with an MVR
group is sent from all designated source ports, to all receiver ports that have registered to
receive data from that multicast group. (Default: Disabled)

MVR VLAN – Identifier of the VLAN that serves as the channel for streaming multicast services
using MVR. MVR source ports should be configured as members of the MVR VLAN (see

“Adding

Static Members to VLANs”

on page 754), but MVR receiver ports should not be manually

configured as members of this VLAN. (Default: 1)

MVR Running Status – Indicates whether or not all necessary conditions in the MVR
environment are satisfied. Running status is Active as long as MVR is enabled, the specified
MVR VLAN exists, and a source port with a valid link has been configured (see

“Configuring

MVR Interface Status”

on page 1120).

MVR Current Learned Groups – The number of MVR groups currently assigned to this domain.

Forwarding Priority – The CoS priority assigned to all multicast traffic forwarded into this
domain. (Range: 0-6, where 6 is the highest priority)
This parameter can be used to set a high priority for low-latency multicast traffic such as a
video-conference, or to set a low priority for normal multicast traffic not sensitive to latency.
