MLD Snooping
MLD snooping allows the switch to examine the MLD packets and forwards the decision based on their content. You can configure MLD
snooping in subnets that receive MLD queries from either MLD or the MLD snooping querier. MLD snooping limits the IPv6 multicast
traffic at Layer 2 by configuring Layer 2 LAN ports and dynamically forwards the IPv6 multicast traffic to the ports that want to receive it.
Hosts join IPv6 multicast groups either by sending an unsolicited MLD report or by sending an MLD report in response to a general query
from an IPv6 multicast router (the switch forwards general queries from IPv6 multicast routers to all the ports in a VLAN). The switch
snoops these reports and in response to a snooped MLD report, the switch creates an entry in its forwarding table for the VLAN on which
the report was received. When the other hosts that are interested in this multicast traffic send MLD reports, the switch snoops their
report and adds them to the existing forwarding table entry. The switch creates only one entry per VLAN in the forwarding table for each
multicast group, for which it snoops an MLD report.
