Static source groups enable you to configure static source-group entries (S,G) in the DVMRP multicast routing table. DVMRP cannot prune these entries from the distribution tree. In other words, even if there are no receivers in the group, the multicast stream for a static source-group entry stays active. Currently, static source groups are only supported using DVMRP.
Before you can configure a static source group, you must globally enable DVMRP. Also, if you disable DVMRP, it results in the deletion of all static source group entries on the switch.
For instructions on how to globally enable DVMRP, go to Enabling DVMRP globally.
