ipv6 Specifies the IPv6 address family.
name Specifies a VLAN name.
grpaddressMask Specifies a multicast group address and mask.
sourceIP Specifies the source IP address for a multicast group.

pim Limits the display to cache entries created by PIM.
mvr Limits the display to cache entries created by MVR.
summary Specifies the summary display format.

Usage Guidelines

If the configure forwarding ipmc lookup-key mac-vlan command is configured, the following message displays: displayed:

NOTE: Traffic is forwarded based on MAC address. Actual traffic forwarded based on the installed MAC address need not be the same displayed in this command, if overlapping IP multicast addresses are used in the network.

If the mode is mixed-mode, the following message displays:

NOTE: Traffic could be forwarded based on MAC address. Actual traffic forwarded based on the installed MAC address need not be the same displayed in this command, if overlapping IP multicast addresses are used in the network.
