Technical Specs

In Release 6.2, FND doesn't support the group configuration. You need to invoke API to config the group.
Note
The overall process of FND management can be divided into the following stages:
Figure 6: FND Management Process
• Stage 1: Subscribing IPv6 multicast group address from FND.
After a node joins in the network, it will send the register message to FND shown in above picture. If FND has the preconfigured
multicast group table, it will push the multicast group addresses to the node.
• Stage 2: Managing IPv6 multicast group address on node.
FND posts node’s IPv6 multicast group addresses (maximum is 4) with TLV MulticastGroupSettings to the node. FND can add
or delete the multicast group addresses by TLV MulticastGroupSettings.
• Stage 3: Notifying node’s IPv6 multicast group address to FND.
After a node receive the multicast group addresses, it will send the confirmation message to FND. Then the node can register it
into FND. At the same time, node will periodically send its group multicast address into FND.
