entry catch_all {

}
NOTE
The switch will not validate any IP address in the policy file used in this command. Therefore, slow-path flooding
should be used only for streams which are very infrequent, such as control packets. It should not be used for
multicast data packets. This option overrides any default mechanism of hardware forwarding (with respect to MLD or
PIM) so it should be used with caution.
Slow path flooding will be done within the L2 VLAN only.
Use the
none
option to effectively disable slow path flooding.
You can use the
show mld
command to see the configuration of slow path flooding.
NOTE
This command has no effect in the current release (11.3), since IPv6 multicast traffic floods on all platforms.
Example
The following command configures the multicast data stream specified in
access1
for slow path flooding:
configure mld snooping flood-list access1
The following command specifies that no policy file is to be used, this effectively disabling slow path
flooding:
configure mld snooping flood-list none
History
This command was first available in ExtremeWare XOS 11.2.
