MFDB Table

If the address exists, that entry will be displayed. An exact match is required. The MFDB Table screen displays the following:
•MAC Address. The multicast MAC address for which you requested data.
•VLAN ID. The VLAN ID to which the multicast MAC address is related.
•Component. This is the component that is responsible for this entry in the Multicast Forwarding Database. Possible values are IGMP Snooping, GMRP, Static Filtering and MLD Snooping.
