Procedure for creating a multicast group
Gain an overview of the multicast applications available within the network and the multicast
addresses used. Create a group for every multicast application or for the multicast address
used, and for
each
switch add the ports to which a device of the appropriate group is directly
connected or via which the device can be accessed.
Please note that in multicast MAC addresses the bytes are separated by a colon (:) and IP
multicast addresses are separated by a full stop (.).
