MVR for IPv6

Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

Command Usage

Immediate leave applies only to receiver ports. When enabled, the receiver port is immediately
removed from the multicast group identified in the leave message. When immediate leave is
disabled, the switch follows the standard rules by sending a group-specific query to the
receiver port and waiting for a response to determine if there are any remaining subscribers for
that multicast group before removing the port from the group list.

Using immediate leave can speed up leave latency, but should only be enabled on a port
attached to only one multicast subscriber to avoid disrupting services to other group members
attached to the same interface.

Immediate leave does not apply to multicast groups which have been statically assigned to a
port with the

mvr6 vlan group

command.

Example
The following enables immediate leave on a receiver port.

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5

Console(config-if)#mvr6 domain 1 immediate-leave

Console(config-if)#

mvr6 type

This command configures an interface as an MVR receiver or source port. Use the no form to
restore the default settings.

Syntax

[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

switchport allowed vlan

command.

Default Setting
The port type is not defined.

Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

Command Usage

A port configured as an MVR6 receiver or source port can join or leave multicast groups
configured under MVR6.

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).
