Chapter 24: Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Snooping Commands
434 Section IV: Security and Traffic Control
ENABLE MLDSNOOPING
Syntax
enable mldsnooping
Parameters

Description
Use this command to enable Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD)
Snooping on the switch. The switch supports MLD versions 1 and 2
Snooping. By default, MLD Snooping is disabled.
When MLD Snooping is disabled, the switch forwards IPv6 multicast traffic
to all ports belong to the same VLAN if any of the ports is a member of the
multicast group. When MLD Snooping is enabled, the switch snoops MLD
messages and forwards IPv6 multcast traffic only to multicast member
ports.
The switch does not support the source filtering function of MLD
version 2 Snooping.
