Enabling Ipv6 Multicast Forwarding On A Non-Querier Interface; Configuring Ipv6 Multicast Load Splitting On An Mld Proxy; Enabling Mld Nsr - HP FlexFabric 5950 series Configuration Manual

4. Enter interface view.
5. Enable MLD proxying.

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:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Enable multicast forwarding on
the 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
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MLD view.
3. Enable IPv6 multicast load
splitting on an MLD proxy.

Enabling MLD NSR

This feature backs up information about MLD interfaces and MLD multicast groups to the standby
process. The device recovers the information without cooperation of other devices when an
