The
Unregistered Multicast Page
contains fields to handle Multicast frames that
belong to Unregistered Multicast groups. Unregistered Multicast groups are the
groups that are not known to the device. All Unregistered Multicast frames are still

Filtering, then this port's configuration is valid for any VLAN it is a member of (or
will be a member of).
