Configuring the version of MLD snooping

By configuring the MLD snooping version, you actually configure the version of MLD messages that MLD

snooping can process.

MLD snooping version 1 can process MLDv1 messages, but cannot analyze and process MLDv2
messages, which will be flooded in the VLAN.

MLD snooping version 2 can process MLDv1 and MLDv2 messages.

Follow these steps to configure the version of MLD snooping:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Enter VLAN view

vlan vlan-id

Configure the version of MLD
snooping

mld-snooping version
version-number

Optional
Version 1 by default

CAUTION:

If you switch MLD snooping from version 2 to version 1, the system will clear all MLD snooping forwarding
entries from dynamic joining, and will:

Keep forwarding entries from version 2 static (*, G) joining

Clear forwarding entries from version 2 static (S, G) joining, which will be restored when MLD snooping
is switched back to version 2

For more information about static joining, see “

Configuring static ports

.”

Configuring IPv6 static multicast MAC address entries

In Layer-2 multicast, a Layer-2 IPv6 multicast protocol—such as MLD snooping—can dynamically add

IPv6 multicast MAC address entries. You can also configure IPv6 multicast MAC address entries.
