Remarks

Configure an IPv6 multicast group

By default, no IPv6 group filter is
configured on an interface, that is,
hosts on the interface can join any
valid multicast group.

IPv6 Multicast User Control Policy Configuration

Configuring IPv6 Multicast User Control Policy

IPv6 multicast user control policies are configured on access switches to allow only authorized users to

receive requested IPv6 multicast flows. This helps restrict users from ordering certain

multicast-on-demand programs.

In practice, a device first needs to perform 802.1x authentication, on connected hosts through a

RADIUS server. Then, the device uses the configured multicast user control policy to perform multicast

access control on authenticated users as follows.

z

Upon receiving an MLD report from a host, the access switch checks the IPv6 multicast group

address and multicast source address carried in the report against the configured policies. If a

match is found, the user is allowed to join the multicast group; otherwise, the join report is dropped

by the access switch.

z

Upon receiving a done message from a host, the access switch matches the IPv6 multicast group

and source addresses against the policies. If a match is found, the host is allowed to leave the

group; otherwise, the done message is dropped by the access switch.

Required

By default, the mode to apply a
QoS profile is user-based.

z

If the 802.1x authentication
mode is MAC address-based,
the mode to apply a QoS profile
must be configured
user-based.

z

If the 802.1x authentication
mode is port-based, the mode
to apply a QoS profile must be
configured as port-based.
