Chapter 27 | Multicast Filtering Commands
MVR for IPv6
– 755 –
Command Usage
◆ By default, the switch forwards any multicast streams within the address range
set by a profile, and bound to a domain. The multicast streams are sent to all
source ports on the switch and to all receiver ports that have elected to receive
data on that multicast address.
◆ When the mvr6 source-port-mode dynamic command is used, the switch
only forwards multicast streams which the source port has dynamically joined.
In other words, both the receiver port and source port must subscribe to a
multicast group before a multicast stream is forwarded to any attached client.
Note that the requested streams are still restricted to the address range which
has been specified in a profile and bound to a domain.
Example
Console(config)#mvr6 source-port-mode dynamic
Console(config)#
mvr6 upstream-
source-ip
This command configures the source IPv6 address assigned to all MVR6 control
packets sent upstream on the specified domain. Use the no form to restore the
default setting.
Syntax
mvr6 domain domain-id upstream-source-ip source-ip-address
no mvr6 domain domain-id upstream-source-ip
domain-id - An independent multicast domain. (Range: 1-5)
source-ip-address – The source IPv6 address assigned to all MVR6 control
packets sent upstream. This parameter must be a full IPv6 address
including the network prefix and host address bits.
Default Setting
All MVR6 reports sent upstream use a null source IP address
Command Mode
Global Configuration
Command Usage
All IPv6 addresses must be according to RFC 2373 “IPv6 Addressing Architecture,”
using 8 colon-separated 16-bit hexadecimal values. One double colon may be used
in the address to indicate the appropriate number of zeros required to fill the
undefined fields. (Note that the IP address ff02::X is reserved.)
Example
Console(config)#mvr6 domain 1 upstream-source-ip 2001:DB8:2222:7223::72
Console(config)#
