number of multicast groups. You can use the parameter to
prevent the switch’s MAC address table from becoming filled with
multicast addresses, leaving no room for dynamic or static MAC
addresses.

Controls whether the detection of ports on the switch that are
connected to multicast routers is made automatically or
manually.
You use this selection to specify which of the ports on the switch
are connected to multicast routers. You can allow the switch to
determine this automatically by selecting Auto Detect, which is
the default setting, or you can specify the ports manually by
selecting Manual Select. If you select the latter, the following
option is added to the Configure IGMP Switching menu:

Selecting this menu option displays the Configure Multicast
Router Ports menu as shown in Figure 67.
