Huawei quidway s7700 - Example for Enabling the MLD Snooping Module to Respond to Changes of the Layer 2 Network Topology

11.9.4 Example for Enabling the MLD Snooping Module to
Respond to Changes of the Layer 2 Network Topology
Networking Requirements
As shown in Figure 11-4, four S7700s form a ring network to improve the network reliability.
To prevent loops on the network, the S7700s run the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP).
Host 1 and Host 2 need to receive multicast data from the multicast source. The IPv6 addresses
of Host 1 and Host 2 are 2::3/112 and 3::1/64 respectively.

Configuration Roadmap
The configuration roadmap is as follows:
1. Enable MSTP on all the S7700s.
2. Create VLAN 3 and add interfaces to VLAN 3 on all the S7700s.
3. Enable MLD snooping globally on all the S7700s.
