Configuring MVR6
Domain Settings
Use the Multicast > MVR6 (Configure Domain) page to enable MVR6 globally on the
switch, and select the VLAN that will serve as the sole channel for common
multicast streams supported by the service provider.
Parameters
These parameters are displayed:
◆ Domain ID– An independent multicast domain. (Range: 1-5)
◆ MVR6 Status – When MVR6 is enabled on the switch, any multicast data
associated with an MVR6 group is sent from all designated source ports, to all
receiver ports that have registered to receive data from that multicast group.
(Default: Disabled)
◆ MVR6 VLAN – Identifier of the VLAN that serves as the channel for streaming
multicast services using MVR6. MVR6 source ports should be configured as
members of the MVR6 VLAN (see “Adding Static Members to VLANs” on
page 169), but MVR6 receiver ports should not be manually configured as
members of this VLAN. (Default: 1)
◆ MVR6 Running Status – Indicates whether or not all necessary conditions in
the MVR6 environment are satisfied. Running status is Active as long as MVR6 is
enabled, the specified MVR6 VLAN exists, and a source port with a valid link has
been configured (see “Configuring MVR6 Interface Status” on page 608).
◆ MVR6 Current Learned Groups – The number of MVR6 groups currently
assigned to this domain.
◆ Forwarding Priority – The CoS priority assigned to all multicast traffic
forwarded into this domain. (Range: 0-7, where 7 is the highest priority)
This parameter can be used to set a high priority for low-latency multicast
traffic such as a video-conference, or to set a low priority for normal multicast
traffic not sensitive to latency.
◆ Upstream Source IPv6 – The source IPv6 address assigned to all MVR6 control
packets sent upstream on the specified domain. This parameter must be a full
