3.1.8. Configuration - MVR
This page provides MVR related configurations.
Most of the settings are global, whereas the Immediate Leave and MVR Port-Role
configuration is related to the current selecting stack unit, as reflected by the page header.
The MVR feature enables multicast traffic forwarding on the Multicast VLANs. In a multicast
television application, a PC or a network television or a set-top box can receive the multicast
stream. Multiple set-top boxes or PCs can be connected to one subscriber port, which is a
switch port configured as an MVR receiver port. When a subscriber selects a channel, the
set-top box or PC sends an IGMP/MLD report message to Switch A to join the appropriate
multicast group address. Uplink ports that send and receive multicast data to and from the
multicast VLAN are called MVR source ports. It is allowed to create at maximum 8 MVR
VLANs with corresponding channel settings for each Multicast VLAN. There will be totally at
maximum 256 group addresses for channel settings.
