If IPv6 Multicast switching and routing is enabled on the system, the VLAN configuration
overrides the configuration of the system.

You can also enable IPv6 Multicast switching and routing on the specified VLAN by entering:

Disabling IPv6 Multicast Status

To restore the IPv6 Multicast status to its default setting.
You can also disable IPv6 Multicast on the specified VLAN by entering:
