24.3.3 IG MP Filte ring Pro file
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 IG MP Snoo ping 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.
Click Adva nc e d Applic a tio n > Multic a st > IPv4 Multic a st in the navigation panel. Click the IG MP

automatically.
Select fixe d to have the Switch only learn multicast group membership information of the
VLANs that you specify below.
In either a uto or fixe d mode, the Switch can learn up to 16 VLANs (including up to five VLANs
you configured in the MVR screen). For example, if you have configured one multicast VLAN
in the MVR screen, you can only specify up to 15 VLANs in this screen.
The Switch drops any IGMP control messages which do not belong to these 16 VLANs.
You must also enable IGMP snooping in the Multic a st > IPv4 Multic ast > IG MP Sno o ping screen
first.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses these
