IP multicast traffic reduction

1

The multicast static-group uplink command cannot be configured globally per VPLS basis. It can be
configured under the VLAN configuration only.

The multicast static-group uplink command must be used with the multicast static-group command
in order to connect a remote multicast source with the snooping vlan where the static-group is
configured.

When using IGMP v3, you can use the multicast static-group include or multicast static-group
exclude command to statically include or exclude multicast traffic, respectively for hosts that
cannot signal group membership dynamically.

To configure the snooping device to statically join a multicast group on the uplink interface, enter
commands such as the following.

Brocade(config)# vlan 100

Brocade(config-vlan-100)# multicast static-group 224.10.1.1 uplink

To configure the physical interface 10.43.3.12 to statically join a multicast group on port 2/4, enter
commands such as the following.

Brocade(config)# vlan 100

Brocade((config-vlan-100)# multicast static-group 224.10.1.1 2/4

To configure the snooping device to statically join a multicast stream with the source address of
10.43.1.12 in the include mode, enter commands such as the following.

Brocade(config)# vlan 100

Brocade(config-vlan-100)# multicast static-group 224.10.1.1 include 10.43.1.12

uplink

To configure the snooping device to statically join all multicast streams on the uplink interface
excluding the stream with source address 10.43.1.12, enter commands such as the following.

Brocade(config)# vlan 100

Brocade(config-vlan-100)# multicast static-group 224.10.1.1 exclude 10.43.1.12

uplink

Configuring multicast static group port-list per VLAN

When the multicast static-group group-address port-list command is enabled on a snooping VLAN,
the snooping device will add the ports to the outgoing interface list of the multicast group entry in
the forwarding table as if IGMP joins were received from these ports. These ports will not be aged
out from the multicast group for not responding to the IGMP queries.

The multicast static-group group-address port-list command cannot be configured globally per
VPLS basis.

It can be configured under the VLAN configuration level only.

To configure the physical interface ethernet 2/4 to statically join a multicast group, enter
commands such as the following.

Brocade(config)# vlan 100

Brocade(config-vlan-100)# multicast static-group 224.10.1.1 ethernet 2/4

To configure the physical interface ethernet 3/4 to statically join a multicast stream with source
address of 10.43.1.12 in the include mode, enter commands such as the following.

Brocade(config)# vlan 100

Brocade(config-vlan-100)# multicast static-group 224.10.1.1 include 10.43.1.12

ethernet 3/4
