listed (along with the appropriate parameters) in the following table.
Command Parameters
config limited multicast address <portlist> {from <multicast_ipaddr> to <multicast_ipaddr> access [permit | deny]
| state [enable | disable]}
delete limited multicast address [all | <portlist>]
show limited multicast address {<portlist>}
create multicast_range <range_name 32> from <multicast_ipaddr> to <multicast_ipaddr>
delete multicast_range [<range_name 32> | all]
show multicast_range {<range_name 32>}
config limited_multicast_addr ports <portlist> {add multicast_range <range_name 32> | delete multicast_range
[<range_name 32> | all] | {access [permit | deny] | state [enable | disable]}]
show limited_multicast_addr {ports <portlist>}
Each command is listed in detail in the following sections.

Description
The config limited multicast address command allows the user to configure the multicast
address range, access level, and state.
Parameters
<portlist> − A port or range of ports to config the limited multicast address. The beginning and
end of the port list range are separated by a dash. Non-contiguous portlist entries are
separated by a comma. (ex:1-3, 7-9)
from − Enter the lowest multicast IP address of the range.
to − Enter the highest multicast IP address of the range.
access − Use the access field to either permit or deny to limit or grant access to a specified
range of Multicast addresses on a particular port or range of ports.
state − This parameter allows the user to enable or disable the limited multicast address
range on a specific port or range of ports.
Restrictions Only Administrator and Operator-level users can issue this command. This command is used
as a backwards compatible command for legacy devices and firmware.
