NGAF does not forward multicast traffic. For the NGAF to indicate forwarding multicast traffic, you need to configure multicast routes to forward multicast routes, as shown in the following figure.

Click Add and the figure is shown as below.

Source Address: source address of multicast data.

Multicast Address: the destination address of multicast packets.

Source Interface: the source interface on the host sending the multicast data.

Forwarding Interface: the interface used to forward the multicast traffic down (you can select more than one interface).
