Setting the maximum number of multicast VLAN
forwarding entries
You can set the maximum number of multicast VLAN forwarding entries on the switch. When the
upper limit is reached, the switch does not create multicast VLAN forwarding entries until some
entries age out or are manually removed.
If the total number of the entries exceeds the upper limit value that you are setting, the system does
not automatically remove existing entries or create new entries. As a best practice, manually remove
some entries to allow new entries to be created.
To set the maximum number of multicast VLAN forwarding entries:
