mld-static-source-delete
Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) is a Layer 3 multicast protocol used between IPv6 hosts, and routers similar to how IGMP is used for IPv4. MLD snooping allows a switch to examine MLD packets, and make forwarding decisions based on their content.
MLD snooping constrains IPv6 multicast traffic at Layer 2 by configuring Layer 2 LAN ports dynamically to forward IPv6 multicast traffic only to those ports that want to receive it.
The default behavior, when MLD Snooping is not configured, multicast traffic will be forwarded to all the switch ports, impacting switch performance.
Syntax mld-static-source-delete
source-ip ip-address |
Specifies the source IPv6 address for the MLD configuration to be deleted. |
l2-net l2-net-name |
Specifies the name of the Layer 2 network. |
group-ip ip-address |
Specifies the source of the IP group for the MLD configuration to be deleted. |
vlan vlan-id |
Specifies the ID of the VLAN for the MLD configuration to be deleted. |
Defaults None.

Usage The default behavior, when MLD Snooping is not configured, multicast traffic is forwarded to all the switch ports, impacting switch performance. For this CLI, the group has to be seated statically already.
Examples To display all multicast group memberships for the local switch, use the following command:
CLI (network-admin@switch) > mld-static-source-delete
