Select this option to set this port as the MVR source port that sends and receives

traffic. A receiver port cannot belong to a multicast VLAN.

is sent or received on this port.

Tagging

Select this checkbox if you want the port to tag the VLAN ID in all outgoing frames

 

transmitted.

Add

Click Add to save your changes to the switch’s run-time memory. The switch loses
