MVR for IPv6

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.

Example
The following configures one source port and several receiver ports on the switch.

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5

Console(config-if)#mvr6 domain 1 type source

Console(config-if)#exit

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/6

Console(config-if)#mvr6 domain 1 type receiver

Console(config-if)#exit

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/7

Console(config-if)#mvr6 domain 1 type receiver

Console(config-if)#

mvr6 vlan group

This command statically binds a multicast group to a port which will receive long-term multicast
streams associated with a stable set of hosts. Use the no form to restore the default settings.

Syntax

[no] mvr6 domain domain-id vlan vlan-id group ip-address

domain-id - An independent multicast domain. (Range: 1-5)

vlan-id - Receiver VLAN to which the specified multicast traffic is flooded. (Range: 1-4093)

group - Defines a multicast service sent to the selected port.

ip-address - Statically configures an interface to receive multicast traffic from the IPv6
address specified for an MVR multicast group. This parameter must be a full IPv6 address
including the network prefix and host address bits.

Default Setting
No receiver port is a member of any configured multicast group.

Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

Command Usage

Multicast groups can be statically assigned to a receiver port using this command. The
assigned address must fall within the range set by the

mvr6 associated-profile

command.

All IPv6 addresses must be according to RFC 2373 “IPv6 Addressing Architecture,” using 8
colon-separated 16-bit hexadecimal values. One double colon may be used in the address to
indicate the appropriate number of zeros required to fill the undefined fields. (Note that the IP
address ff02::X is reserved.)

The MVR VLAN cannot be specified as the receiver VLAN for static bindings.
