Multicast Rate Filter

All the controller managed APs support this feature. The GUI for rate limit control is designed as:

  • Multicast Rate Limiting

    Configuring the Multicast rate limit

  • Multicast Downlink/Uplink Rate Limit should be configured at WLAN level.
  • Multicast Rate Limit and Drop Multicast/Broadcast Traffic from Associated Wireless Clients are mutually exclusive feature.
  • Mutlicast UL/DL values should be shown only if Mutlicast Rate limit is enabled.
  • Downlink value default is u to 6 mbps. The range of multicast values depends on the BSS minimum rate selection in the wlan and a maximum of half of the BSS minimum rate.
  • SSID Rate Limit will always take precedence if Mutlicast Rate Limit is also configured.
