Setting The Maximum Number Of Mld Snooping Forwarding Entries; Configuring Mld Snooping Port Functions; Setting Aging Timers For Dynamic Ports - HP MSR2003 Configuration Manual

To specify the MLD snooping version for a VLAN in VLAN view:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter VLAN view.
3. Specify the version of MLD
snooping.
Setting the maximum number of MLD snooping forwarding
entries
You can modify the maximum number of MLD snooping forwarding entries. When the number of
forwarding entries on the device reaches the upper limit, the device does not automatically remove any
existing entries. To avoid the situation that new entries cannot be created, HP recommends that you
manually remove some entries.
To set the maximum number of MLD snooping forwarding entries:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MLD-snooping view.
3. Set the maximum number of
MLD
entries.

Configuring MLD snooping port functions

Before you configure MLD snooping port functions, complete the following tasks:
Enable MLD snooping for the VLAN.
•
Determine the aging timer for dynamic router ports.
•
Determine the aging timer for dynamic member ports.
•
Determine the addresses of the IPv6 multicast group and IPv6 multicast source.
•

Setting aging timers for dynamic ports

When you set aging timers for dynamic ports, follow these guidelines:
If the memberships of IPv6 multicast groups frequently change, set a relatively small value for the
•
aging timer of the dynamic member ports. If the memberships of IPv6 multicast groups rarely
change, you can set a relatively large value.
If a dynamic router port receives an IPv6 PIMv2 hello message, the aging timer for the port is
•
specified by the hello message. In this case, the mld-snooping router-aging-time command does
not take effect on the port.
You can set the aging timers for dynamic ports either for the current VLAN in VLAN view or globally
•
for all VLANs in MLD-snooping view. If configurations are made in both VLAN view and
MLD-snooping view, the configuration made in VLAN view takes priority.
