MVR
Basic Configuration
This page provides MVR related configurations. The MVR (Multicast VLAN Registration) feature enables multicast
traffic forwarding on the Multicast VLANs.
In a multicast television application, a PC or a network television or a set-top box can receive the multicast
stream. Multiple set-top boxes or PCs can be connected to one subscriber port, which is a switch port configured
as an MVR receiver port. When a subscriber selects a channel, the set-top box or PC sends an IGMP/MLD report
message to Switch A to join the appropriate multicast group address. Uplink ports that send and receive multicast
data to and from the multicast VLAN are called MVR source ports.
A maximum of four MVR VLANs with a corresponding channel profile for each Multicast VLAN is allowed.
The channel profile is defined by the IPMC Profile which provides the filtering conditions.
MVR is a protocol for Layer 2 (IP)-networks that enables multicast-traffic from a source VLAN to be shared with
subscriber-VLANs.
MVR Mode: Enable/Disable the Global MVR. The Unregistered Flooding control depends on the current
configuration in IGMP/MLD Snooping. It is suggested to enable Unregistered Flooding control when the MVR
group table is full.

with Management VLAN ports.
