OUTER

Use the Multicast > MLD Snooping > Multicast Router (Add Static Multicast

Router) page to statically attach an interface to an IPv6 multicast router/

switch.

Depending on your network connections, MLD snooping may not always be

able to locate the MLD querier. Therefore, if the MLD querier is a known

multicast router/switch connected over the network to an interface (port or

trunk) on the switch, you can manually configure that interface to join all

the current multicast groups.
