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
Binds the MVR group addresses specified in a profile to
an MVR domain
GC
Enables MVR for a specific domain
GC
Maps a range of MVR group addresses to a profile
GC
Configures the interval at which the receiver port sends
out general queries.
GC
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
Configures the expected packet loss, and thereby the
number of times to generate report and group-specific
queries
GC
Configures the switch to only forward multicast streams
which the source port has dynamically joined
GC
Configures the source IP address assigned to all control
packets sent upstream
GC
Specifies the VLAN through which MVR multicast data is
received
GC
Enables immediate leave capability
IC
Configures an interface as an MVR receiver or source
port
IC
Statically binds a multicast group to a port
IC
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
Shows the profiles bound the specified domain
PE
Shows MVR settings for interfaces attached to the MVR
VLAN
PE
Shows information about the current number of entries
in the forwarding database, or detailed information about
a specific multicast address
PE
Shows all configured MVR profiles
PE
Shows MVR protocol statistics for the specified interface PE
