Table 23 Advanced Application > Static Multicast Forwarding

LABEL	DESCRIPTION
Active	Select this check box to activate your rule. You may temporarily deactivate
	a rule without deleting it by clearing this check box.
Name	Type a descriptive name (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) for this
	static multicast MAC address forwarding rule. This is for identification only.
MAC Address	Enter a multicast MAC address which identifies the multicast group. The
	last binary bit of the first octet pair in a multicast MAC address must be 1.
	For example, the first octet pair 00000001 is 01 and 00000011 is 03 in
	hexadecimal, so 01:00:5e:00:00:0A and 03:00:5e:00:00:27 are valid
	multicast MAC addresses.
VID	You can forward frames with matching destination MAC address to port(s)
	within a VLAN group. Enter the ID that identifies the VLAN group here. If
	you don’t have a specific target VLAN, enter 1.
Port	Enter the port(s) where frames with destination MAC address that matched
	the entry above are forwarded. You can enter multiple ports separated by
	(no space) comma (,) or hyphen (-). For example, enter “3-5” for ports 3,
	4, and 5. Enter “3,5,7” for ports 3, 5, and 7.
Add	Click Add to save your rule to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch
	loses this rule if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the
	top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory
	when you are done configuring.
Cancel	Click Cancel to reset the fields to their last saved values.
Clear	Click Clear to begin configuring this screen afresh.
Index	Click an index number to modify a static multicast MAC address rule for
	port(s).
