Figure 6-56. Multicast Interface Configuration screen
This menu allows the assignment of a multicast routing protocol to an IP interface. The IP interface
must have been previously configured on the switch.
In addition, IGMP may be enabled or disabled for the selected IP interface.
The available multicast protocols are the Protocol Independent Multicast – Dense Mode (PIM-DM),
and the Distance-Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP).
INACT is not a multicast routing protocol. It is used to make a given interface inactive for IP Multicast
routing and can still route IP traffic.
Parameter Description
Interface Name:[
]

Protocol (DVMRP), and INACT
(inactive). INACT is not a multicast
routing protocol. It is used to make a
given interface inactive for IP
Multicast routing yet can still route
IP traffic.
