Configuring IPMSv6 on a Switch
This section describes how to use Command Line Interface (CLI) commands to complete the following
configuration tasks:
• Enable and disable IPv6 Multicast Switching (IPMSv6) switch wide (see “Enabling and Disabling
IPv6 Multicast Status” on page 25-27).
• Configure a port as an MLD static neighbor (see “Configuring and Removing an MLD Static
Neighbor” on page 25-30).
• Configure a port as an MLD static querier (see “Configuring and Removing an MLD Static Querier”
on page 25-31).
• Configure a port as an MLD static group (see “Configuring and Removing an MLD Static Group” on
page 25-32)
Enabling and Disabling IPv6 Multicast Status
IPv6 Multicast is disabled by default on a switch. The following subsections describe how to enable and
disable IPv6 Multicast by using the ipv6 multicast admin-state command.
Enabling IPv6 Multicast Status
To enable IPv6 Multicast switching and routing on the system if no VLAN or SPB service is specified,
use the ipv6 multicast admin-state command as shown below:
-> ipv6 multicast admin-state enable
You can also enable IPv6 Multicast switching and routing on the specified VLAN or SPB service by
entering:
-> ipv6 multicast vlan 2 admin-state enable
-> ipv6 multicast service 10 admin-state enable
Disabling IPv6 Multicast Status
To disable IPv6 Multicast switching and routing on the system if no VLAN or SPB service is specified,
use the ipv6 multicast admin-state command as shown below:
-> ipv6 multicast admin-state disable
Or, as an alternative, enter the following command to restore the IPv6 Multicast status to its default
setting:
-> no ipv6 multicast admin-state
Note. See the “IP Multicast Switching Commands” chapter in the OmniSwitch AOS Release 8 CLI
Reference Guide for complete documentation of IPMSv6 CLI commands.
Note. If IPv6 Multicast switching and routing is enabled on the system, the VLAN or SPB service
configuration overrides the configuration of the system.
