Configuring IPv6 static multicast MAC address entries
In Layer-2 multicast, a Layer-2 IPv6 multicast protocol—such as MLD snooping—can dynamically add IPv6 multicast MAC address entries. You can also configure IPv6 multicast MAC address entries.
Configuring an IPv6 static multicast MAC address entry in system view
Table 10: Configure an IPv6 static multicast MAC address entry in system view
To do... | Use the command... | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
Enter system view | system-view | — |
Configure a static multicast MAC address entry | mac-address multicast mac-address interface interface-list vlan vlan-id | Required No static multicast MAC address entries exist by default. |
Configuring an IPv6 static multicast MAC address entry in interface view
Table 11: Configure an IPv6 static multicast MAC address entry in interface view
To do... | Use the command... | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
Enter system view | system-view | — |
Enter Ethernet interface/Layer 2 aggregate interface view or port group view | interface interface-type interface-number | Required In Ethernet interface view or Layer 2 aggregate interface view, the configuration takes effect on only the current interface. In port group view, the configuration takes effect on all ports in the port group. |
Configure a static multicast MAC address entry | mac-address multicast mac-address vlan vlan-id | Required No static multicast MAC address entries exist by default. |
![[NOTE: ]](images/note.png) | NOTE: For more information about the mac-address multicast command, see the IP Multicast Command Reference. When configuring a static multicast MAC address entry in system view, the configuration is effective for the specified interface. When configuring a static multicast MAC address entry in interface view or port group view, the configuration is effective only for the current interface or interfaces in the current port group. Any legal IPv6 multicast MAC address except 3333-xxxx-xxxx—where x represents a hexadecimal number from 0 to F—can be manually added to the MAC address table. A multicast MAC address is a MAC address whose the least significant bit of the most significant octet is 1. | |
