By default, MLD snooping for a

Specifying the MLD snooping version
Different versions of MLD snooping process different versions of MLD messages:
MLDv1 snooping processes MLDv1 messages, but it floods MLDv2 messages in the VLAN instead
of processing them.
MLDv2 snooping processes MLDv1 and MLDv2 messages.
If you change MLDv2 snooping to MLDv1 snooping, the system does the following:
Clears all MLD snooping forwarding entries that are dynamically created.
Keeps static MLDv2 snooping forwarding entries (*, G).
Clears static MLDv2 snooping forwarding entries (S, G), which will be restored when MLD
snooping is switched back to MLDv2 snooping.

Setting the maximum number of MLD snooping forwarding
entries
You can modify the maximum number of MLD snooping forwarding entries. When the number of
forwarding entries on the device reaches the upper limit, the device does not automatically remove any
existing entries or create new entries until some entries time out or are removed. In this case, HP
recommends that you manually remove excessive entries.
