Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To control the access permissions of multicast programs that users can order on an interface, run the multicast authorization-enable command to enable the controllable multicast function on the interface first. This function enables the device to implement authentication control over multicast programs that users order on this interface. The control is based on a specified multicast policy.

If an ordered multicast program is permitted by the multicast policy, the user is allowed to order the program.
If an ordered multicast program is denied by the multicast policy, the user is not allowed to order the program.

Precautions

The command configuration does not take effect for multicast programs that users have ordered before the command is run, but takes effect only for new multicast programs.

In VS mode, this command is supported only by the admin VS.

Example
