This section describes commands used to configure Multicast VLAN

Registration for IPv6 (MVR6). A single network-wide VLAN can be used to

transmit multicast traffic (such as television channels) across a service

provider’s network. Any multicast traffic entering an MVR VLAN is sent to

all subscribers. This can significantly reduce to processing overhead

required to dynamically monitor and establish the distribution tree for a

normal multicast VLAN. Also note that MVR maintains the user isolation

and data security provided by VLAN segregation by passing only multicast

traffic into other VLANs to which the subscribers belong.

Command

Function

Mode

mvr6 associated-profile

Binds the MVR group addresses specified in a profile to

an MVR domain

GC

mvr6 domain

Enables MVR for a specific domain

GC

mvr6 profile

Maps a range of MVR group addresses to a profile

GC

mvr6 proxy-query-

interval

Configures the interval at which the receiver port sends

out general queries.

GC

mvr6 proxy-switching

Enables MVR proxy switching, where the source port acts

as a host, and the receiver port acts as an MVR router

with querier service enabled

GC

mvr6 robustness-value

Configures the expected packet loss, and thereby the

number of times to generate report and group-specific

queries

GC

mvr6 source-port-mode

dynamic

Configures the switch to only forward multicast streams

which the source port has dynamically joined

GC

mvr6 upstream-source-ip

Configures the source IP address assigned to all control

packets sent upstream

GC

mvr6 vlan

Specifies the VLAN through which MVR multicast data is

received

GC

mvr6 immediate-leave

Enables immediate leave capability

IC

mvr6 type

Configures an interface as an MVR receiver or source

port

IC

mvr6 vlan group

Statically binds a multicast group to a port

IC

show mvr6

Shows information about MVR domain settings, including

MVR operational status, the multicast VLAN, the current

number of group addresses, and the upstream source IP

address

PE

show mvr6 associated-

profile

Shows the profiles bound the specified domain

PE

show mvr6 interface

Shows MVR settings for interfaces attached to the MVR

VLAN

PE

show mvr6 members

Shows information about the current number of entries

in the forwarding database, or detailed information about

a specific multicast address

PE

show mvr6 profile

Shows all configured MVR profiles

PE

show mvr6 statistics

Shows MVR protocol statistics for the specified interface PE
