The multicast-list ipv6 command configures an IPv6 multicast list.
The undo multicast-list ipv6 command deletes the configured IPv6 multicast list.
By default, no IPv6 multicast list is configured.
This command is supported only on the NetEngine 8000 F1A.
Parameter | Description | Value |
---|---|---|
list-name |
Specifies the name of an IPv6 multicast list. |
The value is a string of 1 to 32 characters. |
index index |
Specifies the index of an IPv6 multicast list. |
The value is an integer that ranges from 0 to 8191. |
source-ipv6-address ipv6-addr |
Specifies an IPv6 multicast source address. It designates a multicast source for the specified multicast group. |
The address is in hexadecimal notation. |
ipv6-prefix |
Specifies the length of the prefix of the IPv6 multicast source address. |
The value is an integer that ranges from 8 to 128. |
group-ipv6-address ipv6-addr |
Specifies an IPv6 multicast group address. It designates an IPv6 multicast group. |
The value is a 32-digit hexadecimal number, in the format of X:X:X:X:X:X:X:X. |
group-ipv6-prefix |
Specifies the length of the prefix of the IPv6 multicast group address. |
The value is an integer that ranges from 8 to 128. |
vpn-instance vpn-instance-name |
Specifies the VPN instance. |
The value is a string of 1 to 31 case-sensitive characters, spaces not supported. In addition, the VPN instance name must not be _public_. When double quotation marks are used around the string, spaces are allowed in the string. |
Usage Scenario
Multiple IPv6 multicast programs can be configured using group-ipv6-prefix. If group-ipv6-prefix is not specified, the default value is 128, indicating that only one IPv6 multicast program is configured. After a user (for example, an IPTV STB user) goes online, when the user wants to watch a multicast program, the user needs to send an MLD Report message to request the multicast program.
Precautions
An IPv6 multicast program list cannot be modified or deleted after being bound to an IPv6 multicast profile.
