Setting the robustness
You can specify the number of times that the switch sends each MLD message from this interface.
Use a higher value to ensure high reliability from MLD. You can set the robustness by entering a
command such as the following.
Brocade(config)# ipv6 mld robustness 3
Syntax: ipv6 mld robustness seconds
The seconds variable sets the MLD robustness in seconds. You can specify from 2 through 7
seconds. The default is 2 seconds.
To set the robustness for a specified VRF, enter the following commands.
Brocade(config)# ipv6 router pim vrf blue
Brocade(config-ipv6-pim-router-vrf-blue)# ipv6 mld robustness 3
Syntax: [no] ipv6 router pim [vrf vrf-name]
The vrf parameter specifies the virtual routing instance (VRF) specified by the variable vrf-name.
Setting the version
You can use this command to set the MLD version (1 or 2) globally. You can select the version of
MLD by entering a command such as the following.
Brocade(config)# ipv6 mld version 2
Syntax: ipv6 mld version version-number
The version-number variable sets the MLD version. You can specify 1 or 2 for the MLD version.The
default version is 2.
To set the robustness for a specified VRF, enter the following commands.
Brocade(config)# pv6 router pim vrf blue
Brocade(config-ipv6-pim-router-vrf-blue)# ipv6 mld version 2
Syntax: [no] ipv6 router pim [vrf vrf-name]
The vrf parameter specifies the virtual routing instance (VRF) specified by the variable vrf-name.
Configuring MLD parameters at the interface level
The following MLD parameters can be configured at the interface level:
• Port- version - “Specifying a port version”
• Static-group - “Specifying a static group”
• Tracking - “Enabling MLD tracking on an interface”
• Version - “Setting the version on an interface”
Specifying a port version
To set the MLD version on a virtual Ethernet interface, enter the following commands as shown in
the example.
Brocade(config)# interface ve 10
Brocade(config-vif-10)# ipv6 mld port-version 2
Syntax: ipv6 mld port-version version-number
Enter 1 or 2 for version-number. Be sure to enter 2 if you want to use source filtering.
