MLD interfaces field description
Use the data in the following table to use the Interfaces tab.
|
Field |
Description |
|---|---|
|
IfIndex |
Specifies the internetwork layer interface value of the interface for which MLD is enabled. |
|
QueryInterval |
Specifies the frequency at which MLD host-query packets are transmitted on this interface. Values range from 1 to 65535. |
|
Version |
Indicates the MLD version. |
|
Querier |
Specifies the address of the MLD Querier on the IPv6 subnet to which this interface is attached. |
|
QueryMaxResponseDelay |
Specifies the maximum query response time advertised in MLD queries on this interface. Values range from 0 to 60. |
|
Joins |
Specifies the number of times a group membership has been added on this interface. |
|
Groups |
Specifies the current number of entries for this interface in the cache table. |
|
Robustness |
Specifies the robustness variable tuning for the expected packet loss on a subnet. If a subnet is expected to experience loss, the robustness variable can be increased. Values range from 2 to 255. |
|
LastListenQueryIntvl |
Specifies the maximum response delay inserted into the group-specific queries sent in response to the leave group messages. It also indicates the amount of time between group-specific query messages. Values range from 0 to 60. This value can be tuned to modify the leave latency of the network. A reduced value results in reduced time to detect the loss of the last member of a group. |
|
SnoopEnable |
Indicates if snooping is enabled. |
|
FlushAction |
Specifies the MLD flush action as one of the following:
|
|
SsmEnable |
Indicates if ssm is enabled. |
|
NewQuerier |
Specifies the IPv6 address of the new MLD querier. |
|
DynamicDowngradeEnable |
Enables dynamic downgrade of the MLD version when older version query message is received. |
|
OperVersion |
Specifies the operational version of the MLD running on this interface. |
|
McastMode |
