VLAN ID: Router Port Time: Member Port Time: Dynamic Router Ports: Static Router Ports: Enter the VLAN ID of the multicast VLAN. Specify the aging time of the router port. Within this time, if the switch doesn't receive MLD query message from the router port, it will consider this port is not a router port any more. Specify the aging time of the member port. Within this time, if the switch doesn't receive MLD report message from the member port, it will consider this port is not a member port any more. Displays the dynamic router ports of the multicast VLAN. Specify the static router port which is mainly used in the network with stable topology. Note: 1. The Multicast VLAN won't take effect unless you first complete the configuration for the corresponding VLAN owning the port on the 802.1Q VLAN page. 2. The router port should be in the multicast VLAN, otherwise the member ports cannot receive multicast streams. 3. Configure the link type of the router port in the multicast VLAN as Tagged otherwise all the member ports in the multicast VLAN cannot receive multicast streams. 4. Before creating a Multicast VLAN, you should enable the MLD snooping function in 9.2.1 Snooping Config. 5. After a multicast VLAN is created, all the MLD packets will be processed only within the multicast VLAN. Configuration Procedure of Multicast VLAN: Step Operation 1 Create VLAN. 2 Enable MLD snooping globally. 3 Enable the Multicast VLAN. Description Required. On the VLAN →802.1Q VLAN →VLAN Config page, click the Create button to create a VLAN. Enter the VLAN ID and the description for the VLAN. Meanwhile, specify its member ports. Required. On the Multicast →MLD Snooping →Snooping Config page, enable the MLD snooping function globally. Required. On the Multicast →MLD Snooping →Multicast VLAN page, enable the Multicast VLAN function and specify the Multicast VLAN ID as the VLAN specified in Step 1. 9.2.5 Querier Config In an IPv6 multicast network that runs MLD, a Layer 3 multicast device works as an MLD querier to send out MLD queries and manage the multicast table. But MLD is not supported by the devices in Layer 2 network. MLD Snooping Querier can act as an MLD Router in Layer 2 network. It can help to create and maintain multicast forwarding table on the switch with the Query messages it generates. 133
