Timer Description
Message received
before the timer
expires
Action after the timer
expires
Dynamic member port
aging timer
When a port dynamically
joins an IPv6 multicast
group, the switch sets an
aging timer for the port.
When the timer expires,
the dynamic member port
ages out.
MLD membership report.
The switch removes this
port from the MLD
snooping forwarding
table.
NOTE:
In MLD snooping, only dynamic ports age out. Static ports never age out.
How MLD snooping works
The ports in this section are dynamic ports.
MLD messages include general query, MLD report, and done message. An MLD snooping-enabled
switch performs differently depending on the MLD message.
General query
The MLD querier periodically sends MLD general queries to all hosts and routers identified by the IPv6
address FF02::1 on the local subnet to check whether any active IPv6 multicast group members exist on
the subnet.
After receiving an MLD general query, the switch forwards the query to all ports in the VLAN except the
receiving port. The switch also performs one of the following actions:
•
If the receiving port is a dynamic router port in the router port list, the switch restarts the aging timer
for the router port.
• If the receiving port is not in the router port list, the switch adds the port as a dynamic router port to
the router port list and starts an aging timer for the port.
MLD report
A host sends an MLD report to the MLD querier for the following purposes:
• Responds to queries if the host is an IPv6 multicast group member.
•
Applies for an IPv6 multicast group membership.
After receiving an MLD report, the switch forwards it through all the router ports in the VLAN and resolves
the address of the reported IPv6 multicast group. The switch also performs one of the following actions:
• If no forwarding entry matches the IPv6 group address, the switch creates a forwarding entry for the
group, adds the receiving port as a dynamic member port to the forwarding entry, and starts an
aging timer for the port.
• If a forwarding entry matches the IPv6 group address, but the receiving port is not in the forwarding
entry for the group, the switch adds the port as a dynamic member port to the forwarding entry, and
starts an aging timer for the port.
•
If a forwarding entry matches the IPv6 group address and the receiving port is in the forwarding
entry for the group, the switch resets an aging timer for the port.
