Enabling Mld Snooping Proxying - HP A8800 Configuration Manual

Enabling MLD snooping proxying

The MLD snooping proxying function works on a per-VLAN basis. After you enable the function in a
VLAN, the router works as the MLD snooping proxy for the downstream hosts and upstream router in the
VLAN.
To enable MLD snooping proxying in a VLAN:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter VLAN view.
3. Enable MLD snooping
proxying in the VLAN.
Configuring the source IPv6 address for the MLD messages sent
by the proxy
You can set the source IPv6 addresses in the MLD reports and done messages sent by the MLD snooping
proxy on behalf of its attached hosts.
To configure the source IPv6 addresses for the MLD messages sent by the MLD snooping proxy on behalf
of its attached hosts in a VLAN:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter VLAN view.
3. Configure a source IPv6
address for the MLD reports
sent by the proxy.
4. Configure a source IPv6
address for the MLD done
messages sent by the
proxy.
Configuring an MLD snooping policy
Before configuring an MLD snooping policy, complete the following tasks:
Enable MLD snooping in the VLAN.
•
• Determine the IPv6 ACL rule for IPv6 multicast group filtering.
Determine the maximum number of IPv6 multicast groups that a port can join.
•
Configuring an IPv6 multicast group filter
On a MLD snooping–enabled router, you can configure an IPv6 multicast group filter to limit multicast
programs available to different users.
