1881
enable mld
enable mld {vlan <vlan name>} {MLDv1 | MLDv2}
Description
Enables MLD on a router interface. If no VLAN is specified, MLD is enabled on all router interfaces.
Syntax Description
Default
Enabled, set to MLDv1 compatibility mode.
Usage Guidelines
MLD is a protocol used by an IPv6 host to register its IPv6 multicast group membership with a router.
Periodically, the router queries the multicast group to see if the group is still in use. If the group is still
active, IPv6 hosts respond to the query, and group registration is maintained.
MLDv1 is enabled by default on the switch. However, the switch can be configured to disable the
generation and processing of MLD packets.
A VLAN must have an IPv6 address to support MLD.
NOTE
MLDv2 is not supported in ExtremeWare XOS 11.3.
Example
The following command enables MLDv1 on the VLAN
accounting
