Multicast Tab - Bridge Multicast Forward All
The Bridge Multicast Forward All screen contains fields for attaching ports or LAGs to a device that is attached to
a neighboring Multicast router/switch. Once IGMP Snooping is enabled, Multicast packets are forwarded to the
appropriate port or VLAN.
The Bridge Multicast Forward All screen contains the following fields:
VLAN ID. DIsplays the VLAN for which Multicast parameters are displayed.
The configuration options are as follows:
• None. The port is not configured for Multicast service.
• Forbidden. Forbidden ports are not included the Multicast group, even if IGMP snooping designated the
port to join a Multicast group.
• Static. Indicates the port is user-defined.
• Dynamic. Indicates the port is configured dynamically.
SNMP Tab - Global Parameters
The Global Parameters screen contains parameters for defining SNMP notification parameters.
Local Engine ID. Indicates the local device engine ID. The field value is a hexadecimal string. Each byte in
hexadecimal character strings consists of two hexadecimal digits. Each byte can be separated by a period or a
colon. The Engine ID must be defined before SNMPv3 is enabled. For stand-alone devices, select a default Engine
ID that is comprised of Enterprise number and the default MAC address. For a stackable system configure the
Engine ID, and verify that the Engine ID is unique for the administrative domain. This prevents two devices in a
network from having the same Engine ID.
Use Default. Uses the device generated Engine ID. The default Engine ID is based on the device MAC address and
is defined per standard as:
• First 4 octets — first bit = 1, the rest is IANA Enterprise number.
• Fifth octet — Set to 3 to indicate the MAC address that follows.
• Last 6 octets — MAC address of the device.
