Netgear M4100-50G (GSM7248v2h2) - 46‐port GE + 4 GE Combo L2 Managed Switch Manual De Usuario

You can configure bridge multicast forwarding and manage MFBD and IGMP snooping.

When you create a VLAN, a default multicast forwarding option is assigned. You can use the 
Global Multicast Mode setting to set all VLANs currently configured on the switch to a 
selected forwarding mode. The global setting does not create a default setting for VLANs 
created subsequently—it simply ensures that all existing VLANs are configured with the 
specified mode. You can also configure how the switch forwards multicast packets on an 
individual or per-VLAN basis.
