(namely ff02::1). Once there is a listener who wishes to join the multicast address, it will send a MLD Multicast
listener Report back through the multicast address.
MLD Snooping is namely the MLD listening. The switch restricts the multicast traffic from flooding through
MLD Snooping, and forward the multicast traffic to ports associated to multicast devices only. The switch
listens to the MLD messages between multicast routers and listeners, and maintains the multicast group
forwarding list based on the listening result. The switches forwards multicast packets according to the
multicast forwarding list
The switch realizes the MLD Snooping function while supporting MLD v2. This way, the user can acquire IPv6
multicast with the switch.
