MLD Snooping Querier VLAN Configuration Fields

Field Description
VLAN ID The VLAN on which the MLD snooping querier is enabled. When enabling the MLD snooping querier on a VLAN, use this menu to select the desired VLAN. Only VLANs that have been configured on the system and are not already enabled for the MLD snooping querier appear in the menu. When modifying MLD snooping querier settings, this field identifies the VLAN that is being configured.
Querier Election Participation The participation mode for the MLD snooping querier election process:
  • Enabled: The MLD snooping querier on this VLAN participates in the querier election process when it discovers the presence of another querier in the VLAN. If the snooping querier finds that the other querier source IPv6 address is lower than its own address, it stops sending periodic queries. If the snooping querier wins the election (because it has the lowest IPv6 address), then it continues sending periodic queries.
  • Disabled: When the MLD snooping querier on this VLAN sees other queriers of the same version in the VLAN, the snooping querier moves to the non-querier state and stops sending periodic queries.
Querier VLAN IPv6 Address The MLD snooping querier unicast link-local IPv6 address the VLAN uses as the source address in periodic MLD queries sent on the VLAN. If this value is not configured, the VLAN uses the global MLD snooping querier IPv6 address.
