Ipv6 Mld Snooping Robustness-Variable - Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series Command Reference Manual

ipv6 mld snooping robustness-variable

ipv6 mld snooping robustness-variable
To configure the number of IP version 6 (IPv6) Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) queries that the
switch sends before deleting a listener that does not respond, or to enter a VLAN ID to configure the
number of queries per VLAN, use the ipv6 mld snooping robustness-variable command. To reset the
variable to the default settings, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description vlan vlan-id
integer_value
Command Default
The default global robustness variable (number of queries before deleting a listener) is 2.
The default VLAN robustness variable (number of queries before aging out a multicast address) is 0,
which means that the system uses the global robustness variable for aging out the listener.
Command Modes
Global configuration mode
Command History Release
12.2(40)SG
Usage Guidelines
Robustness is measured by the number of MLDv1 queries sent with no response before a port is removed
from a multicast group. A port is deleted when there are no MLDv1 reports received for the configured
number of MLDv1 queries. The global value determines the number of queries that the switch waits
before deleting a listener that does not respond, and it applies to all VLANs that do not have a VLAN
value set.
The robustness value configured for a VLAN overrides the global value. If the VLAN robustness value
is 0 (the default), the global value is used.
VLAN numbers 1002 through 1005 are reserved for Token Ring and FDDI VLANs and cannot be used
in MLD snooping.
