IPv4 and IPv6 Multicast 1629
Configuring and Viewing MLD Proxy
Use the following commands to configure the upstream VLAN routing
interface as an MLD proxy. The MLD proxy issues host messages on behalf of
the hosts that have been discovered on the downstream MLD-enabled
interfaces. The upstream interface is the interface closest to the root
multicast router, which should be running IGMP.

show ipv6 mld groups [interface
vlan vlan-id]
