PARAMETERS

groups an interface can join at the same time. (Range: 1-1023;
Default: 1023)
◆ Current Multicast Groups – Displays the current multicast groups the
interface has joined.
◆ Throttling Action Mode – Sets the action to take when the maximum
number of multicast groups for the interface has been exceeded.
(Default: Deny)
■
Deny - The new multicast group join report is dropped.

implemented on the interface. (Options: True or False)
