Enabling dropping unknown IPv6 multicast data

Unknown IPv6 multicast data refers to IPv6 multicast data for which no forwarding entries exist in the MLD

snooping forwarding table. When the switch receives such multicast data, one of the following occurs:

If the function of dropping unknown IPv6 multicast data is disabled, the switch floods unknown IPv6

multicast data in the VLAN to which the data belongs.

If the function of dropping unknown IPv6 multicast data is enabled, the switch forwards unknown
IPv6 multicast data to other router ports instead of flooding it in the VLAN. If no other router ports

exist, the switch drops the unknown IPv6 multicast data.

Configuration guidelines

The drop-unknown and mld-snooping drop-unknown commands are mutually exclusive. Do not

configure them at the same time.

You can enable dropping unknown multicast data either for the current VLAN in VLAN view or
globally for all VLANs in MLD-snooping view. If configurations are made in both VLAN view and

MLD-snooping view, the configuration made in VLAN view takes priority.
