MVR for IPv6
23
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).
• 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.
