Enabling Mld; Configuring The Mld Version; Configuring Static Joining - HP MSR ASM Configuration Manual

Determine the maximum number of IPv6 multicast groups that an interface can join.
•

Enabling MLD

Enable MLD on the interface on which IPv6 multicast group memberships will be created and
maintained.
To enable MLD:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable IPv6 multicast
routing.
3. Enter interface view.
4. Enable MLD.

Configuring the MLD version

Because MLD message types and formats vary with MLD versions, the same MLD version should be
configured for all routers on the same subnet before MLD can work correctly.
Configuring an MLD version globally
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MLD view.
3. Configure an MLD version
globally.
Configuring an MLD version on an interface
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure an MLD version on
the interface.

Configuring static joining

After an interface is configured as a static member of an IPv6 multicast group or an IPv6 multicast source
and group, it will act as a virtual member of the IPv6 multicast group to receive IPv6 multicast data
addressed to that IPv6 multicast group for the purpose of testing IPv6 multicast data forwarding.
