Configuring an MLD snooping policy
Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure an MLD snooping policy, complete the following tasks:
•
Enable MLD snooping in the VLAN
•
Determine the IPv6 ACL rule for IPv6 multicast group filtering
•
Determine the maximum number of IPv6 multicast groups that a port can join
•
Determine the 802.1p precedence for MLD messages
Configuring an IPv6 multicast group filter
On an MLD snooping–enabled switch, the configuration of an IPv6 multicast group filter enables the
service provider to define limits of multicast programs available to different users.
In an actual application, when a user requests a multicast program, the user’s host initiates an MLD report.
After receiving this report message, the switch checks the report against the configured ACL rule. If the
port on which the report was received can join this IPv6 multicast group, the switch adds an entry for this
port in the MLD snooping forwarding table. Otherwise the switch drops this report message. Any IPv6
multicast data that fails the ACL check is not sent to this port. In this way, the service provider can control
the VOD programs provided for multicast users.
Configuring an IPv6 multicast group filter globally

Required
By default, no IPv6 group filter is
globally configured. That is, the
hosts in a VLAN can join any valid
multicast group.
