Figure 10-3 Port-based IPv6 multicast VLAN

After the configuration, upon receiving an MLD message on a user port, Switch A tags the

message with the IPv6 multicast VLAN ID and relays it to the MLD querier, so that MLD

Snooping can uniformly manage the router ports and member ports in the IPv6 multicast VLAN.

When forwarding multicast data to Switch A, Router A needs to send only one copy of multicast

traffic to Switch A in the IPv6 multicast VLAN, and Switch A distributes the traffic to all the

member ports in the IPv6 multicast VLAN.
