address
- IP Group Address—Forward packets according to the IPv6 Multicast group

NOTE For IPv6 IP Group Address and Source Specific IP Group Address modes, the
device checks a match only for 4 bytes of the destination Multicast address and for the

matched. For the source address, the last 3 bytes + the 5th from the last byte are
matched.

addresses:
- MAC Group Address—Forward packets according to the MAC Multicast group
address

address and IPv4 Multicast group address. If an IPv4 address is configured on the
VLAN, the operational forwarding method for IPv4 Multicast will be IP Group
Address.
