Configuring Port-Based IPv6 Multicast VLAN

When configuring port-based IPv6 multicast VLAN, you need to configure the attributes of each

user port and then assign the ports to the IPv6 multicast VLAN.

z

A user port can be configured as a multicast VLAN port only if it is of the Ethernet, or Layer

2 aggregate interface type.

z

Configurations made in Ethernet interface view is effective only for the current port;

configurations made in Layer 2 aggregate interface view are effective only for the current

interface; configurations made in port group view are effective for all the ports in the current

port group.

Configuration Prerequisites

Before configuring port-based IPv6 multicast VLAN, complete the following tasks:

z

Create VLANs as required

z

Enable MLD Snooping in the VLAN to be configured as an IPv6 multicast VLAN

z

Enable MLD Snooping in all the user VLANs

Configuring User Port Attributes

Configure the user ports as hybrid ports to permit packets of the specified user VLAN to pass

and configure the user VLAN to which the user ports belong as the default VLAN.

Configure the user ports to permit packets of the IPv6 multicast VLAN to pass and untag the

packets. Thus, upon receiving multicast packets tagged with the IPv6 multicast VLAN ID from

the upstream device, the Layer 2 device untags the multicast packets and forwards them to its

downstream device.
