The Bridge Multicast screen displays the ports and LAGs attached to the Multicast service group in the Ports and LAGs tables. The Port and LAG tables also reflect the manner in which the port or LAGs joined the Multicast group. Ports can be added either to existing groups or to new Multicast service groups. The Bridge Multicast screen permits new Multicast service groups to be created. The Bridge Multicast screen also assigns ports to a specific Multicast service address group.

•• None The port is not configured for Multicast service.
The Add to List button adds the configured RMON event to the Event Table at the bottom of the screen.
Multicast > Bridge Multicast Forward All
Multicast > Multicast Forward All
