Setting The Maximum Number Of Mld Snooping Forwarding Entries - HP A8800 Configuration Manual

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter VLAN view.
3. Specify the version of MLD
snooping.
Setting the maximum number of MLD snooping forwarding
entries
You can modify the maximum number of MLD snooping forwarding entries. When the number of
forwarding entries on the router reaches the upper limit, the router gives a prompt asking you to manually
remove the excessive entries. In this case, the router does not automatically remove any existing entries
or create any new entries.
To set the maximum number of MLD snooping forwarding entries:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MLD snooping view.
3. Set the maximum number of
MLD snooping forwarding
entries.
Configuring MLD snooping port functions
Before configuring MLD snooping port functions, complete the following tasks:
• Enable MLD snooping in the VLAN.
Configure the corresponding port groups.
•
Determine the aging timer for dynamic router ports.
•
• Determine the aging timer for dynamic member ports.
Determine the IPv6 multicast group and IPv6 multicast source addresses.
•
Configuring aging timers for dynamic ports
If a router receives no MLD general queries or IPv6 PIM hello messages on a dynamic router port when
the aging timer of the port expires, the router removes the port from the router port list.
If the router receives no MLD reports for an IPv6 multicast group on a dynamic member port when the
aging timer of the port expires, the router removes the port from the forwarding entry for the IPv6
multicast group.
If the memberships of IPv6 multicast groups change frequently, you can set a relatively small value for the
aging timer of the dynamic member ports. If the memberships of IPv6 multicast groups change rarely, you
can set a relatively large value.
