Define the multicast filtering behavior by three options:
Forward All: flood all multicast packets to the VLAN of the
network.
Forward Unknown: flood unknown multicast packets to the

Using Bandwidth Management
In general, one host should not be allowed to occupy unlimited bandwidth, particularly when the device
malfunctions. For example, so-called “broadcast storms” could be caused by an incorrectly configured topology,
or a malfunctioning device. Moxa industrial Ethernet switches not only prevents broadcast storms, but can also
be configured to a different ingress rate for all packets, giving administrators full control of their limited
bandwidth to prevent undesirable effects caused by unpredictable faults.
Configuring Bandwidth Management
Please note that two types of bandwidth management settings are available, depending on the specific model
of switch.
Type 1 EDS-400A series, EDS-505A/508A/510A/G509, EDS-P506A-4PoE/P510/P510A-8PoE,
EDS-600 series, IKS-G6524/G6824, ICS-G7000 series
Type 2 EDS-516A/518A, EDS-728/828, IKS-6726/6726-8PoE/6728
