If the number of existing entries is larger than the limit when you configure it, the device informs

you to remove excessive entries. In this case, the device does not automatically remove any

existing entries or create new entries.

Configuring MLD Snooping Port Functions

Configuration Prerequisites

Before configuring MLD snooping port functions, complete the following tasks:

z

Enable MLD snooping in the VLAN

z

Configure the corresponding port groups

Before configuring MLD snooping port functions, prepare the following data:

z

Aging time of dynamic router ports,

z

Aging timer of dynamic member ports, and

z

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 dynamic member port aging timer.
