Setting the version

To set the robustness for a specified VRF, enter the following commands.

device(config)# ipv6 router pim vrf blue device(config-ipv6-pim-router-vrf-blue)# ipv6 mld robustness 3

Syntax: [no] ipv6 router pim [ vrf vrf-name]

The vrf parameter specifies the virtual routing instance (VRF) specified by the variable vrf-name .

Setting the version

You can use this command to set the MLD version (1 or 2) globally. You can select the version of MLD by entering a command such as the following.

device(config)# ipv6 mld version 1

Syntax: ipv6 mld version version-number

The version-numbervariable sets the MLD version. You can specify 1 or 2 for the MLD version.The default version is 2.

To set the global MLD version for a specified VRF, enter the following commands.

device(config)# ipv6 router pim vrf blue device(config-ipv6-pim-router-vrf-blue)# ipv6 mld version 1

Syntax: [no] ipv6 router pim [ vrf vrf-name]

The vrf parameter specifies the virtual routing instance (VRF) specified by the variable vrf-name .

Configuring MLD parameters at the interface level

The following MLD parameters can be configured at the interface level:

Port- version - Specifying a port version on page 200

Static-group - Specifying a static group on page 200

Tracking - Enabling MLD tracking on an interface on page 201

Version - Setting the version on an interface on page 201

Specifying a port version

To set the MLD version on a virtual Ethernet interface, enter the following commands as shown in the example.

device(config)# interface ve 10 device(config-vif-10)# ipv6 mld port-version 2

Syntax: ipv6 mld port-version version-number

Enter 1 or 2 for version-number . Be sure to enter 2 if you want to use source filtering.

Specifying a static group

A multicast group is usually learned when an MLDv1 report is received. You can configure one or more static groups without having to receive an MLDv1 report.
