Field Description
Multicast Address Record(i)
This field represents information of each IPv6 multicast
address the host listens to on the interface from which the
report message is sent, including record type, IPv6
multicast address, and IPv6 multicast source address on
the sender (i= 1, 2, ... m, where m represents the number
of IPv6 multicast address records).
MLD SSM Mapping
The MLD SSM mapping feature allows you to configure static MLD SSM mappings on the last hop
router to provide SSM support for receiver hosts running MLDv1. The SSM model assumes that the last
hop router is aware of the desired IPv6 multicast sources when receivers join IPv6 multicast groups.
z
When a host running MLDv2 joins a multicast group, it can explicitly specify one or more multicast
sources in its MLDv2 report.
z
A host running MLDv1, however, cannot specify multicast source addresses in its MLDv1 report. In
this case, you need to configure the MLD SSM mapping feature to translate the (*, G) information in
the MLDv1 report into (G, INCLUDE, (S1, S2...)) information.
Figure 1-5
Network diagram for MLD SSM mapping
As shown in
Figure 1-5 , on an IPv6 SSM network, Host A and Host B are running MLDv1 and Host C is
running MLDv2. To provide SSM service for all the hosts while it is infeasible to run MLDv2 on Host A
and Host B, you need to configure the MLD SSM mapping feature on Router A.
With the MLD SSM mapping feature configured, when Router A receives an MLDv1 report, it checks the
IPv6 multicast group address G carried in the message:
z
If G is not in the IPv6 SSM group range, Router A cannot provide the SSM service but the ASM
service.
z
If G is in the IPv6 SSM group range but no MLD SSM mappings corresponding to the IPv6
multicast group G have been configured on Router A, Router A cannot provide SSM service and
drops the packet.
z
If G is in the IPv6 SSM group range, and the MLD SSM mappings have been configured on Router
A for multicast group G, Router A translates the (*, G) information in the MLD report into (G,
