Usage Guideline
The MLD proxy only works in a simple tree topology. Make sure there are no other multicast routers
except for the proxy devices in the simple tree topology.
When receiving MLD report packet from a downstream interface, MLD proxy will update its membership
database which is generated by the merger of all subscriptions on any downstream interface. If the
database is changed, the proxy device will send unsolicited reports or leaves from upstream interface. It
can also send membership reports from the upstream interface when queried.
Example
