7.1 Configuration
The MVR feature enables multicast traffic forwarding on the Multicast VLAN. In a
multicast television application, a PC or a television with 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 join message to
Switch A to join the appropriate multicast.
Uplink ports that send and receive
multicast data to and from the multicast VLAN are called MVR source ports.
The section describes how the user could set the MVR basic conifguration and some
parameters on the switch.
