disable mld snooping

disable mld snooping {with-proxy | vlan name}

Description

Disables MLD snooping.

Syntax Description

with-proxy Disables the MLD snooping proxy.
name Specifies a VLAN.

Default

The with-proxy option is enabled by default.

Usage Guidelines

If a VLAN is specified, MLD snooping is disabled only on that VLAN, otherwise MLD snooping is disabled on all VLANs.

The with-proxy option can be used for troubleshooting purpose. It should be enabled for normal network operation.

Enabling the proxy allows the switch to suppress the duplicate join requests on a group to forward to the connected Layer 3 switch. The proxy also suppresses unnecessary MLD done messages so that they are forwarded only when the last member leaves the group.

Example

The following example disables MLD snooping on the VLAN accounting:

disable mld snooping accounting
