setting for Microsoft NLB on CBS350-24XT in a stack

What are the recommended settings to run Microsoft NLB on CBS350-XT switches in a stack.

looks like multicast mode will not work because the switches do not allow you to add the multicast mac address to the mac address table or static arp entries, it complains illegal mac address

That leaves, Unicast or IGMP mulitcast

Is there any documentation for these configurations?

These are Small Business switch not sure all the feature can have supported like enterprise - Cat 6K we used do as below :

Thanks for that.  The CBS switches have some different options than the Catalyst-6500 and definitely can't do the static arp entries for the multicast mac.  I will see if it can do the arp entries for the IGMP multifcast mac.  It would be nice if Cisco posted a working config with the NLB like the catalyst document.
