Troubleshooting MLD Snooping
Switch Fails in Layer 2 Multicast Forwarding
Symptom
A switch fails to implement Layer 2 multicast forwarding.
Analysis
MLD Snooping is not enabled.
Solution
1) Enter the
display current-configuration
command to view the running status of MLD Snooping.
2) If MLD Snooping is not enabled, use the
mld-snooping
command to enable MLD Snooping
globally, and then use
mld-snooping enable
command to enable MLD Snooping in VLAN view.
3) If MLD Snooping is disabled only for the corresponding VLAN, just use the
mld-snooping enable
command in VLAN view to enable MLD Snooping in the corresponding VLAN.
