1406 Managing IPv4 and IPv6 Multicast
Configuring and Viewing MLD Proxy

Beginning in Privileged EXEC mode, use the following commands to

configure the upstream VLAN routing interface as an MLD proxy. The MLD

proxy issues host messages on behalf of the hosts that have been discovered

on the downstream MLD-enabled interfaces. The upstream interface is the

interface closest to the root multicast router, which should be running IGMP.

show ipv6 mld interface [vlan
vlan-id
]
View MLD information for all interfaces or for
the specified interface.
show ipv6 mld interface stats
[vlan
vlan-id
]
View MLD statistics for all interfaces or for the
specified interface.
show ipv6 mld groups [interface
vlan
vlan-id
]
View the registered multicast groups on the
interface.
show ipv6 mld membership View the list of interfaces that have registered in
any multicast group.
NOTE: Configure only the upstream interface as the MLD proxy. MLD should be
enabled on all downstream interfaces. IPv6 routing must be enabled on the
switch for the MLD proxy feature to operate.
