Configures a static multicast listening discovery (MLD) group for a VLAN.
Syntax
multicast6 static-group ipv6-address [ count num ] { [ ethernet unit/slot/port [ to unit/slot/port ] ... ] [ lag lag-id [ to lag-id ] ... ] }
no multicast6 static-group ipv6-address [ count num ] { [ ethernet unit/slot/port [ to unit/slot/port ] ... ] [ lag lag-id [ to lag-id ] ... ] }
Command Default

The VLAN cannot forward multicast traffic to ports that do not receive MLD membership reports.

Parameters
ipv6-address
Specifies the IPv6 address of the multicast group.
count num
Specifies a contiguous range of groups. The default is 1.
ethernet unit/slot/port [ to unit/slot/port ]
Specifies a port, set of ports, or range of ports to be included in the group.
lag lag-id [ to lag-id ]
Specifies a LAG, set of LAGs, or range of LAGs to be included in the group.
Modes

VLAN configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

A snooping-enabled VLAN cannot forward multicast traffic to ports that do not receive MLD membership reports. To allow clients to send reports, you can configure a static group that applies to individual ports on the VLAN. The static group forwards packets to the static group ports even if they have no client membership reports.

You cannot configure a static group that applies to an entire VLAN.

The maximum number of supported static groups in a VLAN is 512, and the maximum number of supported static groups for individual ports in a VLAN is 256.

You can specify a list of ports, separated by a space, or a range of ports, or you can combine lists and ranges.

You can combine individual Ethernet ports, Ethernet port ranges, LAGs, and LAG ranges in the same command if you wish.

The no form of this command removes the static group fromr the VLAN.

Examples

This example configures on VLAN 20 a static group containing ports 1/1/3 and 1/1/5 to 1/1/7.

Device(config)# vlan 20
(config-vlan-20)# multicast6 static-group ff05::100 count 2 ethernet 1/1/3 ethernet 1/1/5 to 1/1/7
