The add multicast-group command adds multicast groups to a multicast group list.
The undo add multicast-group command removes multicast groups from a multicast group list.
By default, no multicast group is contained in a multicast group list.

Usage Scenario
A multicast group is at the lowest level of the three-level control mechanism for controllable multicast. A multicast group corresponds to a multicast address such as 224.1.1.1. A multicast group can be regarded as a channel or program of IPTV. When configuring controllable multicast, you must create a multicast group and add the group to a multicast group list.
