21.5 IGMP Filtering Profile
An IGMP filtering profile specifies a range of multicast groups that clients
connected to the Switch are able to join. A profile contains a range of multicast IP
addresses which you want clients to be able to join. Profiles are assigned to ports
(in the Multicast Setting screen). Clients connected to those ports are then able
to join the multicast groups specified in the profile. Each port can be assigned a
single profile. A profile can be assigned to multiple ports.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Profile Name Enter a descriptive name for the profile for identification purposes.
To configure additional rule(s) for a profile that you have already added,
enter the profile name and specify a different IP multicast address
range.
Start Address Type the starting multicast IP address for a range of multicast IP
addresses that you want to belong to the IGMP filter profile.
End Address Type the ending multicast IP address for a range of IP addresses that
you want to belong to the IGMP filter profile.
If you want to add a single multicast IP address, enter it in both the
Start Address and End Address fields.
Add Click Add to save the profile to the Switch’s run-time memory. The
Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the
Save link on the top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-
volatile memory when you are done configuring.
