ipv6 mld querier

Syntax

ipv6 mld querier

no ipv6 mld querier

Description

Enables the switch to act as querier on a VLAN. The querier function is enabled by default. If another switch or a multicast router is acting as the MLD querier on the VLAN, this switch defers to that device. If an acting querier stops performing the querier function, all querier-enabled switches and multicast routers on the VLAN enter an election to determine the next device to act as querier.

The no form disables the switch from acting as querier on a VLAN.

Usage

This command must be issued in a VLAN context.

Example

Configuring the querier

To disable the switch from acting as querier on VLAN 500:

Switch(vlan-500)# no ipv6 mld querier

To enable the switch to act as querier on VLAN 500:

Switch(vlan-500)# ipv6 mld querier
