Introduction to IPv6 multicast VLAN

As shown in Figure 29, in the traditional IPv6 multicast programs-on-demand mode, when hosts—Host A,

Host B, and Host C—which belong to different VLANs require IPv6 multicast programs-on-demand

service, the Layer 3 device—Router A—must forward a separate copy of the multicast traffic in each user

VLAN to the Layer 2 device, Switch A. This results in not only waste of network bandwidth but also extra

burden on the Layer 3 device.

Figure 29 Multicast transmission without IPv6 multicast VLAN

The IPv6 multicast VLAN feature configured on the Layer 2 device is the solution to this issue. With the

IPv6 multicast VLAN feature, the Layer 3 device needs to replicate the multicast traffic only in the IPv6

multicast VLAN instead of making a separate copy of the multicast traffic in each user VLAN. This saves

network bandwidth and lessens the burden on the Layer 3 device.

The IPv6 multicast VLAN feature can be implemented by the following approaches:

Port-based IPv6 multicast VLAN

As shown in Figure 30, Host A, Host B and Host C are in three different user VLANs. All the user ports

are hybrid ports. On Switch A, configure VLAN 10 as an IPv6 multicast VLAN, assign all user ports to this

IPv6 multicast VLAN, and enable MLD snooping in the IPv6 multicast VLAN and all user VLANs.
