Multicast filtering is a feature that enables theforwarding of multicast frames only to predefined ports of a switch, which decreasesthe overall traffic and consequently increases the available network bandwidth.Note: Two levels of multicasting exist: IP multicast and Ethernet multicast. We are consideringonly Ethernet multicast as most of the multicasting traffic is generated by GOOSE messageswhich are not IP frames.♦ Configure IGMP Parameters♦ Configure Static Multicast Groups♦ View IP Multicast Groups♦ MAC Address Tables♦ DiagnosticsRSG2100 Main menu and Multicast Filtering submenu.Multicast filtering on ACE850The multicast filter of ACE850 is automatically configured to accept only subscribedGOOSE messages. It is not possible to configure it manually, therefore trafficmanagement must be performed by the main switches.DE80732Multicast filtering on RuggedCom switches1. From the Multicast Filtering submenu, select Configure Static MulticastGroups. The list of already configured Static Multicast Groups is displayed. If nomulticast group has been defined, the list is empty.2. To modify a multicast group, click the corresponding MAC Address. To create anew group, select Insert Record.3. In the Static Multicast Groups window, configure the parameters as required:b List the ports to which the frames are to be routed.b Set the VID and CoS parameters to the same values as those set for the GOOSEmessages (default values are VID=1 and CoS=High).DE80731Static Multicast Groups.Static Multicast Groups summary.34 SEPED310018EN - 10/2010
