IPv6 multicast VLAN configuration examples
This section describes details about IPv6 multicast VLAN configuration examples.
Sub-VLAN-based multicast VLAN configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in
•
MLDv1 runs on Router A, and MLDv1 snooping runs on Switch A. Router A acts as the MLD
querier.
•
The IPv6 multicast source sends IPv6 multicast data to the IPv6 multicast group FF1E::101.
Host A, Host B, Host C, and Host D are receivers of the IPv6 multicast group. The hosts belong
to VLAN 2 through VLAN 5 respectively.
Configure the sub-VLAN-based IPv6 multicast VLAN feature on Switch A to meet the following
requirements:
