configure mld ssm-map add

configure mld ssm-map add v6groupnetmask [v6sourceip | src_domain_name] { {vr} vr_name }

Description

Adds an MLD SSM Mapping entry on a VR.

Syntax Description

v6groupnetmask You must provide group address with the mask length. Instead of configuring separate entries for a continuous range of IP addresses, this optimizes a range of group IP addresses to be configured as a single entry.
v6sourceip Specifies the source IP address for which the SSM should apply.
src_domain_name Provides the option to use DNS to obtain IP addresses dynamically by specifying the domain name.
VR vr_name Specifies the virtual router name.

Default

N/A.

Usage Guidelines

When an MLDv1 report is received for this group or group range, the list of sources configured using this command is used as part of source-specific information to PIM.

The following error message displays when more than 50 source addresses are configured for a specific group:

ERROR: Cannot configure more than 50 sources for group ff30::1/128 on VR-Default

The following error message displays when a source address is already configured:

ERROR: Source 2001:0DB8:1::1 already present for group ff30::1/128 on VR-Default

The following error message displays when a DNS name is already configured:

ERROR: Only one source domain name allowed for group ff30::1/128 on VR-Default

Example

The following example configures a MLD-SSM mapping entry:

configure mld ssm-map add ff06::/64 2001::1
