Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

The function of this command is the same as that of the mld timer query command used in the interface view. The configuration in the MLD view is globally valid, whereas the configuration in the interface view is valid only for the current interface. The system prefers the configuration in the interface view. The configuration in the MLD view is used only when the configuration in the interface view is not done.

Example

# Set the interval for sending MLD general query messages to 200 seconds.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] multicast ipv6 routing-enable
[*HUAWEI] mld
[*HUAWEI-mld] timer query 200
