Configurations performed in interface view take precedence over those performed in MLD view. Configuring basic MLD functions Before you configure basic MLD functions, complete the following tasks: • Enable IPv6 forwarding and configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain can be interoperable at the network layer. • Configure IPv6 PIM-DM or IPv6 PIM-SM. • Determine the MLD version. • Determine the IPv6 multicast group address and IPv6 multicast source address for static group member configuration. • Determine the ACL rule for IPv6 multicast group filtering. 266

Optional

NOTE:
In MLD view, the configuration is effective globally. In interface view, the configuration is effective on
only the current interface.
If no configuration is performed in interface view, the global configuration in MLD view will apply to that
interface. Configurations performed in interface view take precedence over those performed in MLD
view.
Configuring basic MLD functions
Before you configure basic MLD functions, complete the following tasks:
Enable IPv6 forwarding and configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
domain can be interoperable at the network layer.
Configure IPv6 PIM-DM or IPv6 PIM-SM.
Determine the MLD version.
Determine the IPv6 multicast group address and IPv6 multicast source address for static group
member configuration.
Determine the ACL rule for IPv6 multicast group filtering.
