multicast addresses - host names are not allowed. To remove an entry,
select it in the list and click Delete. To remove all entries from the list,
click Reset.
23. Multicast VLAN Forwarding: This is a list of VLANs that participate in
the multicast forwarding. Please see the description of multicast
forwarding in Step 22 above.
Multicast VLAN Forwarding operates as follows:
• If you leave this field blank, then there is no filter, and Multicast
Forwarding traffic is passed across all VLANs.
• If you enter VLANs, then this acts as an allow filter, and Multicast
Forwarding traffic is passed only to the listed VLANS.
To add a new VLAN to the list, enter its number or name in the top field
and click the Add button to its right. You may enter multiple VLANs at
once, separated by a space. To remove an entry, select it in the list and
click Delete. To remove all entries from the list, click Reset.
These VLANs must be trunked to the AP from the LAN switch, and be
defined on the AP. See “VLAN Management” on page 216 and “SSID
Management” on page 276.
The VLANs you enter must be explicitly defined (see “VLANs” on
page 213) in order to participate in multicast forwarding. In fact, the AP
discards packets from undefined VLANs.
