MVR Global Configuration Fields

Field Description
Admin Mode The administrative mode of MVR on the device.
MVR Mode The MVR learning mode, which can be one of the following:
  • Compatible: MVR does not learn source ports membership; instead, all source ports are members of all groups by default. MVR does not forward IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) Joins and Leaves from the hosts to the router.
  • Dynamic: MVR learns source ports membership from IGMP queries. MVR forwards the IGMP Joins and Leaves from the hosts to the router.

The multicast traffic is forwarded only to the receiver ports that joined the group, either by IGMP Joins or MVR static configuration.
Multicast VLAN A dedicated VLAN used to transfer multicast traffic over the network, avoiding duplication of multicast streams for clients in different VLANs.
Maximum Multicast Groups The maximum number of membership groups that can be statically configured in the MVR database.
Current Multicast Groups The current number of membership groups that are statically configured in the MVR database.
Query Response Time The maximum time to wait for an IGMP membership report on a receiver port before removing the port from the multicast group. The query time is specified in tenths of a second.
