Mld Support For Vpns - HP FlexNetwork 7500 Series Configuration Manual

MLD support for VPNs

MLD maintains group memberships on a per-interface base. After receiving an MLD message on an
interface, MLD processes the packet within the VPN to which the interface belongs. MLD only
communicates with other multicast protocols within the same VPN instance.
