Configuring dropping unknown IPv6 multicast data

Unknown IPv6 multicast data refers to IPv6 multicast data for which no forwarding entries exist in the MLD

snooping forwarding table. When the switch receives such IPv6 multicast traffic, one of the following
occurs:

When the function of dropping unknown IPv6 multicast data is disabled, the switch floods unknown
IPv6 multicast data in the VLAN to which the data belongs.

When the function of dropping unknown IPv6 multicast data is enabled, the switch drops all
received unknown IPv6 multicast data.

To enable dropping unknown IPv6 multicast data in a VLAN:
