What is hwL2IfDiscardUnknownMcast?

This read-write EnabledStatus controls whether the port drops unknown multicast packets: 1 discards them, 2 (default) forwards them normally. An admin sets it to discard(1) to stop flooding of multicast traffic with no matching group membership on that port.

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.42.1.1.1.3.1.15.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HUAWEI-L2IF-MIB::hwL2IfDiscardUnknownMcast.1
