Command Manual – Multicast Protocol
Quidway S8500 Series Routing Switches Chapter 3 Multicast Common Configuration Commands
Huawei Technologies Proprietary
3-13
Description
Use the multicast command to configure the multicast groups so that users can join
the multicast group (the managed multicast).
Use the undo multicast command to remove the configuration.
If you do not specify the mask-length argument, you can configure up to ten multicast
group addresses at one time. And if you specify the mask-length argument, you can
configure only one multicast group address at one time. You can configure up to 64
network segments.
Managed multicast is based on the port mode. It implements authority control for users
to a multicast group. Users must pass the 802.1x authentication for the port first.
Moreover, users can only join the multicast group configured particularly for them. The
port-based managed multicast prohibits users without authority from joining, controlling
users’ access to the specific multicast group.
Caution:
In local user view, before configuring this command, you must configure user service
type as LAN-ACCESS, which the managed multicast supports exclusively at present.
You can use the service-type lan-access command to configure service type in local
user view.
Related command: display local-user, service-type lan-access.
Example
# Allow users to join the multicast group with the IP address of 225.10.10.10.
<Quidway>system-view
System View: return to User View with Ctrl+Z.
