Multicast Global Configurations
The Multicast Global Configurations screen is only for globally enabling or disabling the multicast
routing protocols on the switch. Each VLAN or IP Interface uses these global values unless you
configured it to use specialized settings. The protocol must be enabled globally before you can
enable it on a specific VLAN or IP interface. (RIP is globally set up with the RIP Configuration
option.)
To configure globally the multicast protocols
1. From the Main Menu, select Layer 3 - IP Networking Setup | Multicast Global
Configurations and press Enter.
2. Configure these fields.
3. Highlight APPLY and press Enter.
Each protocol has a corresponding configuration screen. You access these screens from the Layer
3 - IP Networking Setup screen.
Field Description
Interface Name
Specifies the name of the IP interface on which RIP is to be set up. This
interface must be previously configured on the switch.
TX Mode
Specifies which version of the RIP protocol will be used to transmit RIP
packets. This field toggles between Disabled, V1 Only, V1 Compatible,
and V2 Only. Disabled prevents the transmission of RIP packets.
RX Mode
Specifies which version of the RIP protocol will be used to interpret received
RIP packets. This field toggles between Disabled, V1 Only, V2 Only, and
V1 and V2. Disabled prevents the reception of RIP packets.
Authentication
Enables or disables authentication between routers. When authentication is
enabled, a password is used to authenticate communication between
routers on the network. Authentication is only supported when RIP is in V1
Compatible or V2 mode.
Password
Specifies the password to be used to authenticate communication between
routers on the network.

Enables or disables, globally, Internet Group Management Protocol
(IGMP) snooping. This protocol allows the switch to forward
multicast traffic intelligently on the switch.

Enables or disables, globally, the Distance-Vector Multicast Routing
Protocol (DVMRP).
PIM-DM State
Enables or disables, globally, the Protocol Independent Multicasting
- Dense Mode (PIM-DM) multicasting protocol.
