Configuring an IPv6 multicast user control policy

IPv6 multicast user control policies are configured on access switches to allow only authorized users to
receive requested IPv6 multicast flows. This helps restrict users from ordering certain multicast-on-demand
programs.
In practice, a device first needs to perform authentication (802.1X authentication for example) on
connected hosts through a RADIUS server. Then, the device uses the configured multicast user control
policy to perform multicast access control on authenticated users as follows.
After receiving an MLD report from a host, the access switch matches the IPv6 multicast group
•
address and multicast source address carried in the report with the configured policies. If a match
is found, the user is allowed to join the multicast group. Otherwise, the join report is dropped by
the access switch.
After receiving a done message from a host, the access switch matches the IPv6 multicast group
•
and source addresses against the policies. If a match is found, the host is allowed to leave the
group. Otherwise, the done message is dropped by the access switch.
