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
â—† Multicast groups can be statically assigned to a receiver port using this
command.
â—† 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.
â—† 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.
â—† 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)#
