Whenever I type "show log" on the switch, the above sentence is repeated.
I'm guessing it's a matter of multicast, but I did not Understand this words.
Plz help anyone solve the problem.
What is the meaning of the error, and what is the solution?
Solved! Go to Solution.

This means that the multicast-table entry for group 239.255.255.250 (effffffa from hex to DEC) from source 150.2.137.62 (9602893e from hex to DEC) on VLAN 237 could not be programmed for some reason. This 239.255.255.250 group is being used by clients for UPnP and when the switch is set to learn source-group-vlan (default) it can be that it fills up the tables unnecessarily if there are many clients.
Depending on the environment it may make sense to set the forwarding-mode to "group-vlan" so that only one entry is being used in the multicast-table for the group/vlan (disregarding the source), but that should be looked into for this specific situation.
