mvr vlan group This command statically binds a multicast group to a port which will receive
long-term multicast streams associated with a stable set of hosts. Use the
no form to restore the default settings.
SYNTAX
[no] mvr [domain domain-id] vlan vlan-id group ip-address
domain-id - An independent multicast domain. (Range: 1-5)
vlan-id - Receiver VLAN to which the specified multicast traffic is
flooded. (Range: 1-4094)
group - Defines a multicast service sent to the selected port.
ip-address - Statically configures an interface to receive multicast
traffic from the IPv4 address specified for an MVR multicast group.
(Range: 224.0.1.0 - 239.255.255.255)
DEFAULT SETTING
No receiver port is a member of any configured multicast group.
COMMAND MODE
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
COMMAND USAGE
◆ Multicast groups can be statically assigned to a receiver port using this
command.
◆ 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 using the mvr vlan group
command.
◆ The MVR VLAN cannot be specified as the receiver VLAN for static
bindings.
EXAMPLE
The following statically assigns a multicast group to a receiver port:
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/7
Console(config-if)#mvr domain 1 type receiver
Console(config-if)#mvr domain 1 vlan 3 group 225.0.0.5
Console(config-if)#
