Usage guidelines
The MLD querier's robustness variable defines the maximum number of attempts for transmitting MLD
general queries, multicast-address-specific queries, or multicast-address-and-source-specific queries in
case of packet loss due to network problems. A greater value of the robustness variable makes the MLD
querier "more robust", but results in a longer IPv6 multicast group timeout time.
The MLD querier's robustness variable determines the following values:
• The default number of MLD general queries the MLDv1/v2 querier sends on startup.
• The number of multicast-address-specific queries the MLDv1 querier sends after receiving an MLD
done message.
