Generally, if the multicast address of the multicast packet received on the device is not registered on the 

local device, the packet will be flooded in the VLAN. When the function of dropping unknown multicast 

packets is enabled, the device will drop any multicast packets whose multicast address is not registered. 

Thus, the bandwidth is saved and the processing efficiency of the system is improved.  

Follow these steps to configure dropping unknown multicast packet: 

Enter system view 

system-view — 

Configure dropping unknown 
multicast packets 

unknown-multicast drop 
enable 

Required 

By default, the function of 
dropping unknown multicast 
packets is disabled. 

 

Display the created multicast 
MAC table entries 

display mac-address multicast 
[ static { { { mac-address vlan vlan-id 
| vlan vlan-id } [ count ] } | count } ] 

You can execute the 
display commands in 
any view.
