[no] mvr6 domain domain-id type {receiver | source}

domain-id - An independent multicast domain. (Range: 1-5)
receiver - Configures the interface as a subscriber port that can

receive multicast data.
source - Configures the interface as an uplink port that can send

and receive multicast data for the configured multicast groups. Note

that the source port must be manually configured as a member of

the MVR6 VLAN using the

A port configured as an MVR6 receiver or source port can join or leave

multicast groups configured under MVR6. A port which is not configured

as an MVR receiver or source port can use MLD snooping to join or

leave multicast groups using the standard rules for multicast filtering

(see

"MLD Snooping Commands" on page 1223

).

Receiver ports can belong to different VLANs, but should not be

configured as a member of the MVR VLAN. Also, note that VLAN

membership for MVR receiver ports cannot be set to access mode (see

the

switchport mode

command).

One or more interfaces may be configured as MVR source ports. A

source port is able to both receive and send data for multicast groups

which it has joined through the MVR6 protocol or which have been

assigned through the

mvr6 vlan group

command.

All source ports must belong to the MVR6 VLAN.
Subscribers should not be directly connected to source ports.

The same port cannot be configured as a source port in one MVR

domain and as a receiver port in another domain.
