Table 86 Configuration items
Item | Description | |
MLD snooping | Enable or disable MLD snooping in the VLAN. | |
You can proceed with the subsequent configurations only if Enable is selected here. | ||
| ||
|
| |
| The default setting is MLDv1. | |
| By configuring an MLD snooping version, you actually configure the versions of MLD | |
| messages that MLD snooping can process. | |
| • MLDv1 snooping can process MLDv1 messages, but it floods MLDv2 messages in | |
Version | the VLAN instead of processing them. | |
• MLDv2 snooping can process MLDv1 and MLDv2 messages. | ||
| ||
| IMPORTANT: | |
| If you change the MLDv2 snooping to MLDv1 snooping, the system clears all MLD | |
| snooping forwarding entries that are dynamically added. | |
| Enable or disable the MLD snooping querier function. | |
| In an IPv6 multicast network that runs MLD, a Layer 3 device acts as the MLD querier | |
| to send MLD queries and establish and maintain IPv6 multicast forwarding entries, | |
| ensuring correct IPv6 multicast traffic forwarding at the network layer. | |
Querier | On an IPv6 network without Layer 3 multicast devices, MLD querier cannot work | |
| ||
| because a Layer 2 device does not support MLD. To address this issue, you can | |
| enable MLD snooping querier on a Layer 2 device so that the device can generate | |
| and maintain IPv6 multicast forwarding entries at data link layer, providing MLD | |
| querier functions. | |
|
| |
Query interval | Configure the MLD general query interval. | |
|
| |
General Query Source | Specify the source IPv6 address of MLD general queries. | |
