Configuring an IPv6 multicast group filter

To restrict the hosts on the network attached to an interface from joining certain IPv6 multicast groups, you
can set an IPv6 ACL rule on the interface so that the interface maintains only the IPv6 multicast groups
matching the criteria.
To do...
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure an IPv6 multicast
group filter.
Configuring the maximum number of IPv6 multicast groups on
an interface
To do...
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure the maximum number of
IPv6 multicast groups that the
interface can join.
This configuration takes effect for dynamically joined IPv6 multicast groups but not the statically
configured multicast groups.

Adjusting MLD performance

In MLD view, the configuration is effective globally. In interface view, the configuration is effective on only
the current interface.
If the same function or parameter is configured in both MLD view and interface view, the configuration
performed in interface view is given priority, regardless of the configuration sequence.

Prerequisites

Before adjusting MLD performance, complete the following tasks:
• Enable IPv6 forwarding and configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
domain can be interoperable at the network layer
Configure basic functions of MLD
•
Determine the startup query interval
•
Determine the startup query count
•
Use the command...
system-view
interface interface-type
interface-number
mld group-policy acl6-number
[ version-number ]
Use the command...
system-view
interface interface-type
interface-number
mld group-limit limit
280
Remarks
—
—
Required.
By default, no IPv6 group filter is
configured on the interface. That
is, hosts on the current interface
can join any valid multicast group.
