Multicast groups can be statically assigned to a receiver port using this
command.
The IP address range from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 is used for
multicast streams. MVR group addresses cannot fall within the reserved
IP multicast address range of 224.0.0.x.
Only IGMP version 2 or 3 hosts can issue multicast join or leave
messages. If MVR must be configured for an IGMP version 1 host, the
multicast groups must be statically assigned.
The MVR VLAN cannot be specified as the receiver VLAN for static
bindings.
