Configuring multicast stream limitation members

Configure multicast stream limitation members on ports of the specified interface to configure the maximum number of streams on the interface.

About this task

You can configure IGMP on a VRF instance the same way you configure the Global Router except that you must first launch the appropriate VRF context.

Procedure

  1. In the navigation pane, expand the following folders: Configuration > IP.
  2. Click IGMP.
  3. Click the StreamLimit Members tab.
  4. Click Insert.
  5. Type the number of the VLAN to which you want to add a member or click Vlan to select an ID from the list.
  6. Type the number of the slot and port that you want to add as a member or click Port, and then select one from the graphic display. If your platform supports channelization for 40 Gbps ports and the port is channelized, you must also specify the sub-port in the format slot/port/sub-port.

Description

IfIndex

Port

Lists each slot and port number for this interface with stream limitation enabled.

Identifies the slot and port in one of the following formats: a single slot and port (slot/port), a range of slots and ports (slot/port-slot/port), or a series of slots and ports (slot/port,slot/port,slot/port). If the platform supports channelization and the port is channelized, you must also specify the sub-port in the format slot/port/sub-port.

MaxStreams

Configures the maximum number of allowed streams for this specific port. The number of allowed streams cannot exceed the maximum number for the interface. The range is from 0–65535 and the default is 4.

NumStreams

Displays the current number of streams received on this interface. This value is a read-only value.
