Configure a Multicast Router VLAN
You can configure an interface to forward only snooped IGMP packets from a specific VLAN
to the multicast router connected to the interface. This configuration is usually not required
because the switch automatically detects a multicast router and forwards the IGMP packets
accordingly. This configuration is required only if you want to make sure that the multicast
router always receives IGMP packets from the switch in a complex network.
To configure a multicast router VLAN:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is of
f-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser
, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Change the Default IP Address of the
Switch on page 11.
Your web browser might display a security message, which you can ignore. For more
information, see Access the Local Browser Interface on page 19.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’
s password in the Password field.
The default password is password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select Switching> Multicast > IGMP Snooping > Multicast Router VLAN
Configuration.
6. From the Interface menu, select the interface.
7. In the VLAN ID field, enter the VLAN ID.
8. From the Multicast Router menu, select Enable or Disable.
9. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
