Verifying the configuration When the MLD snooping querier starts to work, all the switches but the querier receive MLD general queries. Use the display mld-snooping statistics command to display statistics for MLD messages received. # Display the MLD message statistics on Switch B. [SwitchB-vlan100] display mld-snooping statistics Received MLD general queries:3. Received MLDv1 specific queries:0. Received MLDv1 reports:12. Received MLD dones:0. Sent MLDv1 specific queries:0.

Sent MLDv2 specific sg queries:0. Received error MLD messages:0. MLD snooping proxying configuration example Network requirements As shown in Figure 65, MLDv1 runs on Router A and MLDv1 snooping runs on Switch A. Router A acts as the MLD querier. Configure MLD snooping proxying on Switch A. This enables the switch to forward MLD reports and done messages on behalf of the attached hosts and to respond to MLD queries from Router A and then forward the queries to the hosts on behalf of Router A. 234

MLD snooping proxying configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in
Figure 65
, MLDv1 runs on Router A and MLDv1 snooping runs on Switch A. Router A acts
as the MLD querier.
Configure MLD snooping proxying on Switch A. This enables the switch to forward MLD reports and
done messages on behalf of the attached hosts and to respond to MLD queries from Router A and then
forward the queries to the hosts on behalf of Router A.
