Disabling Multicast Static Group Forwarding for a VLAN

Multicast static group forwarding can be disabled at the VLAN level.

The following example disables multicast static group forwarding for a VLAN. The addition of static-group-based outbound interfaces to mcache is disabled. These steps can be used in conjunction with proxy configuration to generate proxy reports for static groups and eliminate traffic from the ICX device to reduce join latency. With this configuration, a proxy module pulls traffic for affected static groups from the ICX device, but does not forward the traffic to recipients configured in the static group. The traffic is forwarded only when IGMP report messages are received from the recipients.

Enter global configuration mode.
```
device# configure terminal
```

Create a VLAN.
```
device(config)# vlan 100
```

Disable multicast static group forwarding on VLAN 100.
```
device(config-vlan-100)# multicast static-grp-fwd-disable 
```

The following example disables multicast static group forwarding on VLAN 100.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# vlan 100
device(config-vlan-100)# multicast static-grp-fwd-disable 
device(config-vlan-100)
