Entering a Multicast Address

Follow the steps outlined below to enter a multicast address in the FDB table:

1. Select New Multicast Entry in the FDB Entry list box.

2. Enter the MAC address in the box in hexadecimal. 1 or 2 digits must be entered

in one of the 6 fields. If only one digit is entered, this is automatically padded

with a zero.

3. You must then specify the ports to which a packet with the specified multicast

address will be sent by the OSM/ESM. The following entries are important:

Port Pool

This column contains all the ports of the OSM/ESM to which multicast packets

with the specified address are not passed on.

Group Members

This column contains all the ports of the OSM/ESM to which multicast packets

with the specified address are passed on.

You can move ports between the columns by clicking on the required port and

then moving it with the < and > buttons. The << and >> buttons move all ports

to the other column.

4. Then click the Set New Values button.

5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 for each MAC address for which you want to configure a

“multicast” FDB entry.

Deleting a Multicast FDB Entry

Follow the steps outlined below to delete a Multicast FDB entry:

1. Select the FDB entries you want to delete in the FDB Entry list box.

2. Click the Delete Multicast Entry button.

Note

The group members specify the ports to which frames with the configured

Multicast MAC address are passed. The ports via which the frames were received

is unimportant. This property is also known as ingress filtering.
