Note:
z An Isolate user VLAN cannot be configured as a multicast VLAN.
z One port can belong to only one multicast VLAN.
z The port connected to a user end can only be a hybrid port.
z The multicast member port must be in the same VLAN with the router port.
Otherwise, the multicast member port cannot receive multicast packets.
z When a router port is added into a multicast VLAN, the router port must be set as a
Trunk port or tagged Hybrid port. Otherwise, all the multicast member ports in this
multicast VLAN cannot receive multicast packets.
z When the multicast VLAN is set up, all IGMP host join packets are broadcast in the
multicast VLAN only. For a multicast member port of a non-multicast VLAN, its
VLAN interface cannot establish the corresponding Layer 2 multicast entry.
Therefore, you are recommended to delete the port from the multicast VLAN.
