IPv6 multicast VLAN configuration task list
Configuration task
Configuring a sub-VLAN-based IPv6 multicast VLAN
Configuring a port-based IPv6
multicast VLAN
NOTE:
If you have configured both sub-VLAN-based IPv6 multicast VLAN and port-based IPv6 multicast VLAN
on a device, the port-based IPv6 multicast VLAN configuration is given preference.
Configuring a sub-VLAN-based IPv6 multicast
VLAN
Before you configure a sub-VLAN-based IPv6 multicast VLAN, complete the following tasks:
Enable IPv6 forwarding.
•
•
Create VLANs as required.
Enable MLD snooping in the VLAN to be configured as an IPv6 multicast VLAN.
•
Configuration guidelines
•
You cannot configure an IPv6 multicast VLAN on a device with IP multicast routing enabled.
The VLAN to be configured as an IPv6 multicast VLAN must exist.
•
The VLANs to be configured as the sub-VLANs of the IPv6 multicast VLAN must exist and must not
•
be IPv6 multicast VLANs or sub-VLANs of any other IPv6 multicast VLAN.
The total number of sub-VLANs of an IPv6 multicast VLAN must not exceed the maximum number
•
the system can support.
Configuration procedure
In this approach, you configure a VLAN as an IPv6 multicast VLAN, and configure user VLANs as
sub-VLANs of the IPv6 multicast VLAN.
To configure a sub-VLAN-based IPv6 multicast VLAN:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Configure the specified VLAN
as an IPv6 multicast VLAN
and enter IPv6 multicast
VLAN view.
Configuring user port attributes
Configuring IPv6 multicast VLAN ports
Command

Remarks
Required.
Use either approach.
Remarks
N/A
No IPv6 multicast VLAN
configured by default.
