Configure Dynamically Learned Multicast Router Port Time-Out

Configuring the MLDS router purge time-out deletes the dynamically learned multicast router ports if no MLD router control packets are received. Use the mrouter-time-out command to set the aging-out time after multicast router ports are dynamically learned, as shown in the following example.

The default value for the multicast router port time-out is 125 seconds. This example configures the value as 60. Dynamically learned router entries will be deleted after 60 seconds.

  1. Configure the multicast router port time-out value.
    SEFOS# configure terminal
    SEFOS(config)# ipv6 mld snooping mrouter-time-out 60 
    SEFOS(config)# end
  2. View the configuration.
    SEFOS# show ipv6 mld snooping globals

    MLD Snooping is operationally enabled
    Transmit Query on Topology Change globally disabled 
    Multicast forwarding mode is MAC based
    Proxy globally disabled
    Proxy reporting globally enabled
    Filter is disabled 
    Router port purge interval is 60 seconds
    Port purge interval is 260 seconds
