Configuring MLD snooping port functions

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure MLD snooping port functions, complete the following tasks:

Enable MLD snooping in the VLAN

Configure the corresponding port groups

Determine the aging time of dynamic router ports

Determine the aging time of dynamic member ports

Determine the IPv6 multicast group and IPv6 multicast source addresses

Configuring aging timers for dynamic ports

If the switch receives no MLD general queries or IPv6 PIM hello messages on a dynamic router port, the

switch removes the port from the router port list when the aging timer of the port expires.
If the switch receives no MLD reports for an IPv6 multicast group on a dynamic member port, the switch

removes the port from the outgoing port list of the forwarding table entry for that IPv6 multicast group

when the port aging timer expires.
If IPv6 multicast group memberships change frequently, you can set a relatively small value for the aging
timer of the dynamic member ports.
