Modifying a Multicast Address Policy
After you create a multicast
VLAN
, you can modify the multicast address policy by adding
more addresses through the
modmcvl
command. However, you can not add an existing multi-
cast address. Follow the steps outlined in
Modifying Multicast VLANs
on page 23-9 and the
steps for
Adding More Policies for This VLAN
on page 23-10. Continue with the procedure
below.
The following menu displays:
Select rule type:
1. Port Rule
2. MAC Address Rule
3. Multicast Address Rule
Enter rule type (1):
1.
Press
3
and
<Return>
.
2.
The following prompt displays:
Set Rule Admin Status to ((e)nable/(d)isable):
Indicate whether or not you want to enable this rule. Type
e
to enable or
d
to disable. If
you disable the rule, then the multicast addresses you enter will not be used to flood traf-
fic, but the parameters you set up for the multicast
VLAN
will be saved. This Admin Status
is different from the Admin Status for the multicast
VLAN
as it controls only this specific
rule. You can enable or disable the rule at a later time using the
modmcvl
command.
3.
The following prompt displays:
Enter the list of MAC addresses (Enter save to end):
Enter one or more multicast addresses. Separate addresses by a space. When you have
entered the final multicast address, leave a space and type
save
.
4.
The following prompt will display:
Configure more rules for this vlan (y/n):
You can set up multiple rules for the same multicast
VLAN
. Enter a
Y
here if you want to
set up more rules in addition to the multicast address rule specified here. If you enter
Y
,
you will be prompted for the next rule that you want to set up on this multicast
VLAN
. If
you enter
N
, you will receive a message, similar to the one below, indicating that the
multicast
VLAN
was set up.
VLAN 3:24 created successfully
