Specifying The Mld Version; Configuring An Interface As A Static Member Interface - HP 6125XLG Configuration Manual

To enable MLD:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable IPv6 multicast
routing.
3. Enter interface view.
4. Enable MLD.

Specifying the MLD version

Because MLD message types and formats vary with MLD versions, configure the same MLD version for all
routers on the same subnet. Otherwise, MLD cannot operate correctly.
To specify an MLD version:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure an MLD version on
the interface.

Configuring an interface as a static member interface

You can configure an interface as a static member of an IPv6 multicast group or an IPv6 multicast source
and group, so that the interface can receive IPv6 multicast data addressed to that IPv6 multicast group for
the purpose of testing IPv6 multicast data forwarding.
Configuration guidelines
A static member interface has the following restrictions:
•
If the interface is MLD and IPv6 PIM-SM enabled, it must be an IPv6 PIM-SM DR.
If the interface is MLD enabled but not IPv6 PIM-SM enabled, it must be an MLD querier.
For more information about IPv6 PIM-SM and DR, see
A static member interface does not respond to queries from the MLD querier. When you configure
•
an interface as a static member interface or cancel this configuration on the interface, the interface
does not send any MLD report or an MLD done message without a request. This is because the
interface is not a real member of the IPv6 multicast group or the IPv6 multicast source and group.
