MLD Snooping (Snooping and Query for IPv6)
– 447 –
Router Port Expiry Time – The time the switch waits after the previous querier
stops before it considers the router port (i.e., the interface that had been
receiving query packets) to have expired. (Range: 300-500 seconds;
Default: 300 seconds)
MLD Snooping Version – The protocol version used for compatibility with
other devices on the network. This is the MLD version the switch uses to send
snooping reports. (Range: 1-2; Default: 2)
Unknown Multicast Mode – The action for dealing with unknown multicast
packets. Options include:
Flood – Floods any received IPv6 multicast packets that have not been
requested by a host to all ports in the VLAN.
To Router Port – Forwards any received IPv6 multicast packets that have
not been requested by a host to ports that are connected to a detected
multicast router. (This is the default action.)
Proxy Reporting – Enable proxy reporting to receive reports from downstream
hosts that are summarized and can build internal membership states. Proxy-
reporting devices may use the IPv6 address configured on this VLAN or the
Source IP address from a received report message as the source address when
forwarding any summarized reports upstream. (Default: Disabled)
Unsolicited Report Interval (1-65536) – If proxy reporting is enabled, this
timer sets how often the upstream interface should transmit unsolicited IGMP
reports. (Default: 400 seconds)
