Multicast interactions with PVLANs
The following Layer 2 multicast protocols are supported on PVLANs:
- IGMPv2
You can enable IGMP on the primary VLAN in a PVLAN only. Use the MAC lookup mode of IGMP (
igmp lookup-mode mac
) only. IP lookup mode is not supported.- MLDv1 and MLDv2
You can enable MLD on the primary VLAN in a PVLAN only.
Filter consumption increases when IGMP or MLD is enabled on a PVLAN because a filter is allocated for the primary VLAN and for every secondary VLAN when a host connected to a PVLAN joins a multicast group.
PIM is not supported on PVLANs.
