Configuration
Description
4
Alpha-A28E(config-
port)#mvr
(Optional) enable interface MVR.
5
Alpha-A28E(config-
port)#mvr type
{ receiver |
source }
Configure the type of interface MVR. By default, the
type is non-MVR.
To configure it, set the uplink interface to the source
interface to receive multicast data. Users cannot be
directly connected to the source interface; all source
interfaces must be in the multicast VLAN; set the
interface directly connected to the user to the
receiving interface and it cannot belong to the
multicast VLAN.
6
Alpha-A28E(config-
port)#mvr immediate
(Optional) configure immediate leaving on the MVR
interface.
This function can be applied to the receiving interface
directly connected to the user.
After global MVR is enabled, interface MVR is enabled as well.
5.3.5 Checking configurations
Use the following commands to check configuration results.
No.

Alpha-A28E#show mvr vlan
group [ vlan vlan -6.3 id ]
Show MVR multicast VLAN and group
address set.
3
Alpha-A28E#show mvr vlan
vlan - id member
Show information about MVR
multicast member.
5.4 Configuring MVR Proxy
5.4.1 Preparing for configurations
Scenario
In a network with multicast routing protocol widely applied, there are multiple hosts and
client subnet receiving multicast information. Enable IGMP Proxy on the Layer 2 device that
connects the multicast router and hosts, to block IGMP packets between hosts and the
multicast router and relieve the network load.
