Configuring Mld Query And Response Parameters - HP MSR ASM Configuration Manual

To enhance device performance, avoid unnecessary costs, and ensure protocol security, configure

the device to discard MLD messages that do not carry the Router-Alert option.
Configuring Router-Alert option handling methods globally
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MLD view.
3. Configure the interface to
discard any MLD message
without the Router-Alert
option.
4. Enable the insertion of the
Router-Alert option into MLD
messages.

Configuring MLD query and response parameters

On startup, the MLD querier sends MLD general queries at the startup query interval, which is
one-quarter of the MLD query interval. The number of queries, or the startup query count, is user
configurable.
After startup, the MLD querier periodically sends MLD general queries at the MLD query interval to check
for IPv6 multicast group members on the network. You can modify the query interval based on the actual
condition of the network.
The MLDv1 querier sends MLD multicast-address-specific queries at the MLD last listener query interval
when it
multicast-address-and-source-specific queries at the MLD last listener query interval when it receives a
state change report message. The number of queries, or the last listener query count, equals the
robustness variable—the maximum number of packet retransmissions.
A multicast listening host starts a timer for each IPv6 multicast group that it has joined when it receives an
MLD query (general query), multicast-address-specific query, or multicast-address-and-source-specific
query. The timer is initialized to a random value in the range of 0 to the maximum response delay
advertised in the MLD query message. When the timer decreases to 0, the host sends an MLD
membership report message to the IPv6 multicast group.
