Configuring Upstream Interface Mode
When a single downstream interface is specified with multiple upstream interfaces, V8102
supports two methods of MLD proxy operation that are priority mode and load balancing
mode. You can choose the way how to handle multicast traffic going to upstream interfac-
es. The priority mode is configured by default.
There are two modes for handling the multicast traffic toward upstream interfaces
- Priority mode: Each downstream interface joins one upstream interface of the highest
priority based on its credit, priority and vid.
- Load balancing mode: It distributes multicast packets across multiple links of upstream
interfaces with the largest credit value according to hash-threshold algorithm for MLD
group.
Every upstream interface has a credit unit value (default :100) and a priority. The up-
stream interfaces are specified a priority based on its credit value, the configured priority
value and vid. The highest upstream interface has larger credit, higher priority and lower
vid than other ones.
To specify the priority on an upstream interface, use the following command.
Command
Mode
Description
ipv6 mld proxy-service priority
<0-255>
Interface
[VLAN]
Specifies the priority on an upstream interface (de-
fault :0)
no ipv6 mld proxy-service priori-

To choose the upstream interface mode for MLD proxy operation, use the following com-
mand.
