Table 215: MLD Snooping Querier VLAN Configuration Fields
Field
Description
VLAN ID
The VLAN on which the MLD snooping querier is enabled. When enabling the
MLD snooping querier on a VLAN, use this menu to select the desired VLAN.
Only VLANs that have been configured on the system and are not already
enabled for the MLD snooping querier appear in the menu. When modifying
MLD snooping querier settings, this field identifies the VLAN that is being
configured.
Querier Election Participation
The participation mode for the MLD snooping querier election process:
•
Enabled – The MLD snooping querier on this VLAN participates in the querier
election process when it discovers the presence of another querier in the
VLAN. If the snooping querier finds that the other querier source IPv6
address is lower than its own address, it stops sending periodic queries. If the
snooping querier wins the election (because it has the lowest IPv6 address),
then it continues sending periodic queries.
•
Disabled – When the MLD snooping querier on this VLAN sees other queriers
of the same version in the VLAN, the snooping querier moves to the non-
querier state and stops sending periodic queries.
Querier VLAN IPv6 Address
The MLD snooping querier unicast link-local IPv6 address the VLAN uses as the
source address in periodic MLD queries sent on the VLAN. If this value is not
configured, the VLAN uses the global MLD snooping querier IPv6 address.

Table 216: MLD Snooping Querier VLAN Configuration Fields
Field
Description
VLAN ID
The VLAN associated with the rest of the data in the row. The table includes only
VLANs that have the snooping querier enabled.
State
The operational state of the MLD Snooping Querier on a VLAN, which is one of
the following:
•
Querier – The snooping switch is the querier in the VLAN. The snooping
switch will send out periodic queries with a time interval equal to the
configured querier query interval. If the snooping switch sees a better querier
(numerically lower) in the VLAN, it moves to non-querier mode.
•
Non-Querier – The snooping switch is in non-querier mode in the VLAN. If
the querier expiry interval timer expires, the snooping switch moves into
querier mode.
•
Disabled – The snooping querier is not operational on the VLAN. The
snooping querier moves to the disabled mode when MLD snooping is not
operational on the VLAN, when the querier address is not configured, or the
network management address is not configured.
