Configuring MLD snooping proxying
Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure MLD snooping proxying in a VLAN, complete the following tasks:
•
Enable MLD snooping in the VLAN
•
Determine the source IPv6 address for the MLD reports sent by the proxy
•
Determine the source IPv6 address for the MLD done messages sent by the proxy
Enabling MLD snooping proxying
The MLD snooping proxying function works on a per-VLAN basis. After you enable the function in a
VLAN, the device works as the MLD snooping proxy for the downstream hosts and upstream router
in the VLAN.
Follow these steps to enable MLD snooping proxying in a VLAN:
To do...
Use the command...

in the VLAN
mld-snooping proxying enable
Required
Disabled by default.
Configuring a source IPv6 address for the MLD messages
sent by the proxy
You can set the source IPv6 addresses in the MLD reports and done messages sent by the MLD
snooping proxy on behalf of its attached hosts.
Follow these steps to configure the source IPv6 addresses for the MLD messages sent by the MLD
snooping proxy on behalf of its attached hosts in a VLAN:

Configure a source
IPv6 address for the
MLD reports sent by
the proxy
mld-snooping report source-ip
{
ipv6-address
|
current-interface
}
Required
The default is
FE80::02FF:FFFF:FE00:0001.
Configure a source
IPv6 address for the
MLD done messages
sent by the proxy
mld-snooping done source-ip
{
ipv6-address
|
current-interface
}
The default is
FE80::02FF:FFFF:FE00:0001.
