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.

join or leave an MVR group (see the ip igmp snooping command). Note
that only IGMP version 2 or 3 hosts can issue multicast join or leave
messages.
