Manage Multicast
Multicast IP traffic is traffic that is destined to a host group. Host groups are identified by Class D IP addresses,
which range from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping
allows the switch to forward multicast traffic intelligently. Based on the IGMP query and report messages,
the switch forwards traffic only to the ports that request the multicast traffic rather than to all ports, which
could affect network performance.
IGMP snooping helps to optimize multicast performance and is especially useful for bandwidth-intensive IP
multicast applications such as online media streaming applications.
Manage IGMP Snooping
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping is enabled by default. Under some circumstances
you might want to temporarily disable IGMP snooping.
To manage IGMP snooping:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the switch or to the
switch directly through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
The login page displays.
3. Enter the switch password.
The default password is password. The password is case-sensitive.
The HOME page displays.
4. From the menu at the top of the page, select SWITCHING.
The Quality of Service (QoS) page displays.
5. From the menu on the left, select MULTICAST.
The MULTICAST page displays.
6. Enable or disable IGMP snooping by clicking the button in the IGMP Snooping section.
When IGMP snooping is enabled, the button displays blue.
7. Click the APPLY button.
