MVR
This page provides MVR related configurations.
The MVR feature enables multicast traffic forwarding on the Multicast VLANs.
In a multicast television application, a PC or a network television or a set-top box can receive the
multicast stream. Multiple set-top boxes or PCs can be connected to one subscriber port, which
is a switch port configured as an MVR receiver port. When a subscriber selects a channel, the set-
top box or PC sends an IGMP/MLD report message to Switch A to join the appropriate multicast
group address. Uplink ports that send and receive multicast data to and from the multicast VLAN
are called MVR source ports.
It is allowed to create at maximum 4 MVR VLANs with corresponding channel profile for each
Multicast VLAN. The channel profile is defined by the IPMC Profile which provides the filtering
conditions.
