Multicast VLAN Registration for IPv6

Receiver – A subscriber port that can receive multicast data sent through the MVR6 VLAN.
Also, note that VLAN membership for MVR receiver ports cannot be set to access mode
(see

“Adding Static Members to VLANs”

on page 754).

Forwarding Status – Shows if multicast traffic is being forwarded or blocked.

MVR6 Status – Shows the MVR6 status. MVR6 status for source ports is “Active” if MVR6 is
globally enabled on the switch. MVR6 status for receiver ports is “Active” only if there are
subscribers receiving multicast traffic from one of the MVR6 groups, or a multicast group has
been statically assigned to an interface.

Immediate Leave – Configures the switch to immediately remove an interface from a multicast
stream as soon as it receives a leave message for that group. (This option only applies to an
interface configured as an MVR6 receiver.)

Interface
To configure interface settings for MVR6:

1. Click Multicast, MVR6.

2. Select Configure Interface from the Step list.

3. Select Configure Port or Configure Trunk from the Action list.

4. Select an MVR6 domain.

5. Set each port that will participate in the MVR6 protocol as a source port or receiver port, and

optionally enable Immediate Leave on any receiver port to which only one subscriber is
attached.

6. Click Apply.

Configuring Interface Settings for MVR6

Assigning Static MVR6 Multicast Groups to Interfaces

Use the Multicast > MVR6 (Configure Static Group Member) page to statically bind multicast
groups to a port which will receive long-term multicast streams associated with a stable set of
hosts.
