Configuring the MLD Report Filter Policy

The MLD report filter policy can be configured globally, for a non-default VRF instance, or for an Interface. The following task configures the MLD report filter policy globally.
  1. Enter global configuration mode. 
    device# configure terminal
  2. Configure the MLD report filter policy globally, specifying an ACL. 
    device(config)# ipv6 mld access-group test1-v6
    Note: ACL rules are used to configure which multicast group addresses, source addresses, or report and leave messages are to be dropped or allowed. Multicast group addresses and prefixes are configured as destination IP addresses or prefixes, and the source addresses and prefixes are configured as source IP addresses and prefixes in the extended ACL rules.
    Note: If the specified ACL is not configured, the MLD report messages for all multicast group addresses and source addresses are dropped.
    Note: If an MLD report filter policy is configured both globally and at the interface level, only the interface filter is applied.

The following example configures the MLD report filter policy for a VE interface. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# interface ve 10
device(config-vif-10)# ipv6 mld access-group test1-v6
