Enabling IPv6 multicast forwarding on a non-querier interface

Typically, only MLD queriers can forward IPv6 multicast traffic and non-queriers cannot. This
prevents IPv6 multicast data from being repeatedly forwarded. If a router interface on the MLD proxy
failed the querier election, enable IPv6 multicast forwarding on the interface to forward IPv6 multicast
data to downstream receivers.
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
A shared-media network might have multiple MLD proxies, including one proxy acting as a querier.
To avoid duplicate IPv6 multicast traffic, do not enable IPv6 multicast forwarding on any of the
non-querier MLD proxies for the network.
Configuration procedure
To enable IPv6 multicast forwarding on a non-querier interface:

Configuring IPv6 multicast load splitting on an MLD proxy

This feature enables all proxy interfaces on an MLD proxy device to share IPv6 multicast traffic on a
per-group basis.
To enable IPv6 multicast load splitting on an MLD proxy:
Step
Enter system view.
1.
Enter MLD view.
2.
Enable IPv6 multicast load
