MLD support for VPNs

MLD maintains group memberships on a per-interface basis. After receiving an MLD message on an
interface, MLD processes the packet within the VPN to which the interface belongs. MLD only
communicates with other multicast protocols within the same VPN instance.

Protocols and standards

•
RFC 2710, Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) for IPv6
•
RFC 3810, Multicast Listener Discovery Version 2 (MLDv2) for IPv6

Configuring basic MLD features

Before you configure basic MLD features, complete the following tasks:
•
Enable IPv6 forwarding and configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices can
interoperate at the network layer.
•
Configure IPv6 PIM.
•
Determine the MLD version.
•
Determine the IPv6 multicast group address and IPv6 multicast source address for static group
member configuration.
•
Determine the ACL to be used in the IPv6 multicast group policy.
