Enabling Mld Ssm Mapping; Configuring Mld Ssm Mapping Entries; Configuring Mld Proxying; Configuration Prerequisites - HP MSR ASM Configuration Manual

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 MLD functions.
•

Enabling MLD SSM mapping

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Enable the MLD SSM
mapping feature.
NOTE:
To ensure SSM service for all hosts on a subnet, regardless of the MLD version running on the hosts, enable
MLDv2 on the interface that forwards IPv6 multicast traffic onto the subnet.

Configuring MLD SSM mapping entries

You can perform this configuration task multiple times to map an IPv6 multicast group to different IPv6
multicast sources.
On a device that supports both MLD snooping and MLD, if you enable MLDv2 on a VLAN interface ,
configure a port in the VLAN as a simulated host, the simulated host will send MLDv2 reports even if you
did not specify an IPv6 multicast source in the mld-snooping host-join command. In this case, the
corresponding IPv6 multicast group will not be created based on the configured MLD SSM mapping.
To configure an MLD SSM mapping:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MLD view.
3. Configure an MLD SSM
mapping.

Configuring MLD proxying

This section describes how to configure MLD proxying.

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure the MLD proxying feature, complete the following tasks:
Enable IPv6 forwarding and configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
•
domain are interoperable at the network layer.
Enable IPv6 multicast routing.
