Multicast VLAN Registration for IPv6
– 605 –
IPv6 address including the network prefix and host address bits. By default, all
MVR6 reports sent upstream use a null source IP address.
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.)
Web Interface
To configure settings for an MVR6 domain:
1. Click Multicast, MVR6.
2. Select Configure Domain from the Step list.
3. Select a domain from the scroll-down list.
4. Enable MVR6 for the selected domain, select the MVR6 VLAN, set the
forwarding priority to be assigned to all ingress multicast traffic, and set the
source IP address for all control packets sent upstream as required.
5. Click Apply.

Group Address
Profiles
Use the Multicast > MVR6 (Configure Profile and Associate Profile) pages to assign
the multicast group address for required services to one or more MVR6 domains.
Command Usage
◆ Use the Configure Profile page to statically configure all multicast group
addresses that will join the MVR6 VLAN. Any multicast data associated with an
MVR6 group is sent from all source ports to all receiver ports that have
registered to receive data from that multicast group.
