ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
1810
configure mvr static group
configure mvr vlan <vlan-name> static group {<policy-name> | none}
Description
Configures the MVR static group address range on a VLAN.
Syntax Description
Default
By default, all the MVR group addresses work in static mode.
Usage Guidelines
If no policy file is specified (the
none
option), the entire multicast address range 224.0.0.0/4, except for
the multicast control range 224.0.0.0/24, is used for static groups in MVR.
MVR must first be configured on the VLAN before using this command.
The following is a sample policy file mvrpol.pol. This policy configures 236.1.1.0/24 as the MVR static
group address range. Any MVR addresses outside this range will be dynamically registered through
IGMP. An MVR VLAN will only proxy join for addresses that are not in the static group. If you want all
the multicast groups to by dynamic, use a policy file with this command that denies all multicast
addresses.
Entry extreme1 {
if match any {
nlri 236.1.1.0/24 ;
}
then {
permit ;
}
}
Example
The following command configures the MVR static group address range specified in the policy file
mvrpol.pol for the VLAN
v1
:
configure mvr vlan v1 static group mvrpol
