The MLD Snooping Basic Configuration page has the following parameters:
Snooping Enabled: Enable the Global MLD Snooping.
Unregistered IPMCv6 Flooding Enabled: Enable unregistered IPMCv6 traffic flooding. The flooding control takes effect only when MLD Snooping is enabled. When MLD Snooping is disabled, unregistered IPMCv6 traffic flooding is always active in spite of this setting.
MLD SSM Range: SSM (Source-Specific Multicast) Range allows the SSM-aware hosts and routers run the SSM service model for the groups in the address range. Requests made by MLDv1 hosts in this range are ignored. Assign a valid IPv6 multicast address as prefix with a prefix length (from 8 to 128) for the range.
Leave Proxy Enabled: Enable MLD Leave Proxy. This feature can be used to avoid forwarding unnecessary leave messages to the router side.
Proxy Enabled: Enable MLD Proxy. This feature can be used to avoid forwarding unnecessary join and leave messages to the router side.
Router Port: Specify which ports act as router ports. A router port is a port on the Ethernet switch that leads towards the Layer 3 multicast device or MLD Querier. If an aggregation member port is selected as a router port, the whole aggregation will act as a router port.
Fast Leave: Enable the fast leave on the port. System will remove group record and stop forwarding data upon receiving the MLDv1 leave message without sending last member query messages. It is recommended to enable this feature only when a single MLDv1 host is connected to the specific port.
Throttling: Enable to limit the number of multicast groups to which a switch port can belong.
