Configuring a multicast group policy

This feature enables an interface to filter IGMP reports by using an ACL that specifies multicast groups and the optional sources. It is used to control the multicast groups that the hosts attached to an interface can join.

This configuration does not take effect on static group members, because static group members do not send IGMP reports.

To configure a multicast group policy:

Step

By default, no IGMP multicast group policy exists on an interface. Hosts attached to the interface can join any multicast groups.
