Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

To remove a multicast scope

Notes

To open DHCP, click Start, click Settings, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click DHCP.
Removing a multicast scope does not necessarily stop the use of multicast groups associated with scope addresses on your network.
If computers on your network are configured by means other than DHCP to use these same addresses, the multicast group might still be used even after this procedure is complete.

Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
