55.Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD)
Commands
In multicast where data is simultaneously sent to multiple destinations,
destinations are managed in a unit called "group." Each group has its own
unique multicast IP address and multicast MAC address assigned. A client
that wants to join multicast can be a member of the group after sending a
notification that it joins a specific multicast group to neighbor routers.
MLD is a protocol to maintain and manage multicast groups in an IPv6
environment. It is a protocol equivalent to IGMP in IPv4. It is used for clients
to join or leave a group or used to exchange group information between
routers.
55.1. config mld

Description
This command is used to configure MLD on the Switch.
 Format
config mld [ipif <ipif_name 12> | all] {query_interval <sec 1-31744> | max_response_time
<sec 1-25> | robustness_variable <value 2-7> | last_listener_query_interval <sec 1-25> |
version <value 1-2> | state [enable | disable]}

Parameters
config mld [ipif <ipif_name 12> | all] {query_interval <sec 1-31744> | max_response_time <sec 1-
25> | robustness_variable <value 2-7> | last_listener_query_interval <sec 1-25> | version
<value 1-2> | state [enable | disable]}
show mld {ipif <ipif_name 12>}
show mld group {ipif <ipif_name 12> | group <ipv6addr>}
ipif Specifies the IP interface name used for this configuration.
<ipif_name 12>
