Configure an IPv6 multicast
group filter

mld-snooping group-policy
acl6-number [ vlan vlan-list ]

Required
By default, no IPv6 group filter is
configured on an interface. That is, the

hosts on the interface can join any

valid multicast group.

NOTE:

When you configure a multicast group filter in an IPv6 multicast VLAN, be sure to configure the filter in
the sub-VLANs of the IPv6 multicast VLAN. Otherwise, the configuration does not take effect.

In MLDv2, when a host is enabled to join multiple multicast groups, the multicast group filter cannot
correctly filter multicast groups because the host that runs MLDv2 sends multiple multicast groups that it

wants to join in one membership report.

Configuring IPv6 multicast source port filtering

When the IPv6 multicast source port filtering feature is enabled on a port, the port can connect only to

IPv6 multicast receivers rather than multicast sources. The reason is that the port blocks all IPv6 multicast

data packets but it permits multicast protocol packets to pass.
If this feature is disabled on a port, the port can connect to both multicast sources and IPv6 multicast

receivers.
