Enabling the MLD host tracking function
With the MLD host tracking function, the router can record the information of the member hosts that are
receiving IPv6 multicast traffic, including the host IPv6 address, running duration, and timeout time. You
can monitor and manage the member hosts according to the recorded information.

Configuring MLD SSM mapping
For some certain restrictions, some receiver hosts on an SSM network might run MLDv1. To provide SSM
service support for these receiver hosts, configure the MLD SSM mapping feature on the last-hop router.
Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure the MLD SSM mapping feature, complete the following tasks:
• Enable IPv6 forwarding and configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
domain can be interoperable at the network layer.
• Configure basic MLD functions.
