Saturday
Model: ER8411  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.3.6 Build 20251028 Rel.12399

Hi All,

 

I'm trying to define multicast ranges in the IP group menu. Under the "IP Address" tab when I try to define the multicast range it says: "The IP address cannot be a Class D address". 

The reason I'm trying to do this to use for firewall rules. 

How to control multicast traffic via the firewall in this case on the ER8411? 

 

Thanks.
