MLD configuration task list

Complete these tasks to configure MLD:

Task

Remarks

Enabling MLD

Required

Configuring the MLD version

Option

Configuring static joining

Optional

Configuring an IPv6 multicast group filter

Optional

Configuring basic functions of MLD

Setting the maximum number of IPv6 multicast
groups that an interface can join

Optional

Configuring MLD message options

Optional

Configuring MLD query and response
parameters

Optional

Configuring MLD fast-leave processing

Optional

Adjusting MLD performance

Enabling the MLD host tracking function

Optional

Enabling MLD SSM mapping

Optional

Configuring MLD SSM mapping

Configuring MLD SSM mappings

Optional

Enabling MLD proxying

Optional

Configuring MLD proxying

Configuring IPv6 multicast forwarding on a
downstream interface

Optional

NOTE:

In MLD view, the configuration is effective globally. In interface view, the configuration is effective on only
the current interface.

If no configuration is performed in interface view, the global configuration in MLD view will apply to that
interface. Configurations performed in interface view take precedence over those performed in MLD

view.

Configuring basic functions of MLD

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure the basic functions of MLD, complete the following tasks:

Enable IPv6 forwarding and configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
domain can be interoperable at the network layer

Configure IPv6 PIM-DM or IPv6 PIM-SM

Determine the MLD version

Determine the IPv6 multicast group address and IPv6 multicast source address for static group
member configuration
