Operation Command Description
Create a multicast MAC
address entry.
mac-address multicast
mac-address vlan vlan-id
Required
The mac-address
argument must be a
multicast MAC address
The vlan-id argument is
the ID of the VLAN to
which the port belongs.
 Note:
z If the multicast MAC address entry to be created already exists, the system gives
you a prompt.
z S5600 series switches do not support multicast MAC address 0100-5Exx-xxxx.
z If a multicast MAC address is added manually, the switch will not learn this multicast
MAC address again through IGMP Snooping. The undo mac-address multicast
command is used to delete the multicast MAC address entries created by the
mac-address multicast command manually, however, it cannot be used to delete
the multicast MAC address entries learned by the switch.
z If you want to add a port to a multicast MAC address entry created through the
mac-address multicast command, you must delete this entry first, create this entry
again, and then add the specified port to the forwarding ports of this entry.
z The system does not support adding multicast MAC addresses to IRF ports. If a port
is already an IRF port, the system will prompt that you cannot add multicast MAC
addresses to this port.
z You cannot enable port aggregation on a port where you have configured a
multicast MAC address; and you cannot configure a multicast MAC address on an
aggregation port.
