MVR for IPv6
– 1286 –
source - Configures the interface as an uplink port that can send
and receive multicast data for the configured multicast groups. Note
that the source port must be manually configured as a member of
the MVR6 VLAN using the switchport allowed vlan command.
DEFAULT SETTING
The port type is not defined.
COMMAND MODE
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
COMMAND USAGE
â—† A port configured as an MVR6 receiver or source port can join or leave
multicast groups configured under MVR6. A port which is not configured
as an MVR receiver or source port can use MLD snooping to join or
leave multicast groups using the standard rules for multicast filtering
(see "MLD Snooping" on page 1239).
â—† Receiver ports can belong to different VLANs, but should not be
configured as a member of the MVR VLAN. Also, note that VLAN
membership for MVR receiver ports cannot be set to access mode (see
the switchport mode command).
â—† One or more interfaces may be configured as MVR source ports. A
source port is able to both receive and send data for multicast groups
which it has joined through the MVR6 protocol or which have been
assigned through the mvr6 vlan group command.
All source ports must belong to the MVR6 VLAN.
Subscribers should not be directly connected to source ports.
â—† The same port cannot be configured as a source port in one MVR
domain and as a receiver port in another domain.
EXAMPLE
The following configures one source port and several receiver ports on the
switch.
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5
Console(config-if)#mvr6 domain 1 type source
Console(config-if)#exit
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/6
Console(config-if)#mvr6 domain 1 type receiver
Console(config-if)#exit
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/7
Console(config-if)#mvr6 domain 1 type receiver
Console(config-if)#
